How to start writing your script

You can either write a standalone script that has less functionality:

Login to your gmail account.
Go to: https://script.google.com/home
Click on 'new script'.
Rename the project.
Change the filename.

OR an integrated script that has more functionality:
Login to your gmail account.
Go to your documents.
Click on your google app (docs, sheet, powerpoint).
Go to Tools --> Script Editor.
Rename the project.
Change the filename.
