Do you know how to use InDesign? if yes then that is the first step. Next you would need to know programming skills, learn them if you don't have hands on experience in this. If you want to learn extendscripts then do remember that it uses an old version of ECMA script so not all the modern features would work on it. Once you are done with the above then you need to learn/understand the InDesign DOM, that you can reference from the following link

In the Indesign Scripts panel (Window>>Utilities>>Scripts) there are numerous scripts that you can look at. Study them and study Javascript, then use the API reference that Manan posted to start working on your own.
