Hi Jeeva,

I'd recommend starting by looking at our contributor guide, particularly the section about configuring your development environment: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#setting-up-your-development-environment](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#setting-up-your-development-environment)

After you get Kibana up and running, you can run `node ./scripts/generate_plugin.js awesome-plugin` to generate the required boilerplate for a new plugin.

Hope it helps  
Thanks  
Rashmi
