QUERY: how to write a Visual Studio.NET IDE plug-in / add-on

I am wondering how one can write a plug-in / add-on for Visual Studio.NET. I
would like to write a code beautifier for my Visual Studio.NET IDE.

I want the plug-in / add-on to be integrated in the Visual Studio.NET IDE
and automatically removes trailing white spaces (tabs, spaces, etc). Then it
could replace all tabs with 4 spaces and vice-versa. Then another feature
would be to remove/strip all comments.

I know there are various 3rd party tools exists, however none of them do ALL
the above 3 I want in one package, plus they are self-contained in their own
editor and have to pay for.
