Hi Hannes,

http://www.wolfram.com/products/workbench/ is a great resource for 
learning about everything you're mentioning. Also, if you enjoy 
developing in a notebook environment, take a look in the front end at 
File > New > Package (opens the fantastic front end package editor which 
provides the means to easily write a .m file in a notebook environment).

Cheers,
-Adam
