Addon develop/convert documentation

I only found this rather sparse page about addon coding. https://github.com/elkarte/Elkarte/wiki/Create-an-Addon

Where else can I find a guide/help to convert SMF addons?

I don't think such a guide exists :( 

Your best option is to review some of the existing addons as a start.   I know I've done several "basic" ones with lots of comments to help get started.  Also most of the addons are fully hook based.  A hook based addon does not make code edits which greatly improves easy upgrade of the forum.   Also turning on debug will show you all the hooks being called which can be a help.  Past that is to start your work and then ask support questions here.
