Where's the problem precisely?

I don't exactly know what you need, but here's my advice: install the
jEdit editor on your computer, open it, go to "plugin manager" and
install the LilyPondTool plugin. Once you've installed it, create a
new (empty) .ly file, save it, and the LilyPondTool toolbar will
appear. Click on the icon at the left (Document Wizard), and this way
it'll become much, much easier to create your score, add instruments,
etc.

Here's the template I get in 5 seconds:
