Useful things to know:
* Hit "New" to start, this will create a skeleton of a program to start playing with.
* The sample plugins will be in a folder called plugins in the folder where musescore is installed (ie, C:\Program Files (x86)\MuseScore 2\plugins on windows.)
* The help does not give you a lot of guidance, it is mainly a reference. However, it will help to know that the language is qml ( http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qmlapplications.html#what-is-qml )
* The main class is MuseScore, so when looking through help, start there.
The inbuilt help is more of a reference than a guide.
