Hello, despite all the tutorials available on internet, I am still confused over what should be the starting point to get started with joomla extension development, any Joomla developer here?

Write a "hello world" module. That's how I'd start. Your question is too vague though. (Ex. is there a specific part of Joomla that you're trying to do something unique with? Or do you just want a "hello world"?. What are we building?)

Copy an existing component, module or plugin, and make small changes gradually until you figure out what everything does or is. You can probably find a barebones version of each within the JED (Joomla Extension Directory).
