You can create a new file in <your addon>/lua/ulx/xgui/settings/<whatever.lua>, and use the already existing client.lua as a starting point:
https://github.com/Nayruden/Ulysses/blob/master/ulx/lua/ulx/xgui/settings/client.lua

(The important lines are Line 4 (https://github.com/Nayruden/Ulysses/blob/master/ulx/lua/ulx/xgui/settings/client.lua#L4) and Line 57 (https://github.com/Nayruden/Ulysses/blob/master/ulx/lua/ulx/xgui/settings/client.lua#L57) -- Those two lines should be all you need to get something started.

You could use URS as a base (I only suggest because it's a bit more simple).
https://github.com/Aaron113/urs/blob/master/lua/ulx/xgui/settings/cl_urs_gui.lua

As far as a video, I do not know of any video.  There also isn't a lot of documentation, but I'm sure it'll get better with time.  In the mean time, just try to narrow down your questions so they can be answered easier.

Fine. I bet someone will steal my idea anyway.
I wanna make chat tags that are customizable in the xgui menu. Thats my idea.
