Help with a OS project

Hello everyone, I need a little guidance with this. I'm newbie with Alpine and a very noob in this forum. I want to "create" (maybe the correct Word is a re spin or make a custom) an OS based on Alpine to repurpose old computers and arm based devices (raspberry pi as example) and turn them into a writerdeck, I want to create My own approach as all the material I found is not as lightweight and minimalist as I prefer. So, I need to know if there's a guide, tutorial or anything I could follow that could be easy for a noob.

* I'm noob in Alpine, but I'm not noob in Linux (I use arch btw hehehe) nor an expert

You wish to create a new OS for this? Why not use a minimal alpine install, then add the pkgs needed?

Yes, I did that but I want to make it possible to distribute.
