GUI Design in Slicer 5.x

Despite not being very familiar to Slicer I am given the task of designing a custom GUI to ease the use of Slicer by physicians. I want this GUI to be run in Slicer 5.x.

Furthermore, I am not sure if it will work on Slicer 5.x. I am searching the new documentation however there is not an up-to-date page describing GUI design. I humbly ask for a guide that you think might be helpful for my relatively simple task.
Thanks a lot in advance.
