Hey, 
You can create a LookML model, create some explore based on data relationships and conditions like sql where if required
and use the respective data modeling to create a look an save it in a folder before adding it in dashboard.

Hope it helps.


Can you please share the steps. i am totally new here

once we create model we need to commit an deploy??

Yes, for the first time when you work with model you have to validate, commit and deploy to see the changes and for the project to be inserted in git repo.
Once you're done with data modeling in develop part, you will see your created explores under explore section and from there you can create visualization.

Thanks for the response. It really helps.

i am working on dev env. i created the model while deploy it showing Deploy to Production is it correct? or it should show deploy to dev i am little confuse here. Can you explain please

Thank you so much

Yes, dev should deploy the code in production. As looker has version controlling, different dev can work on same project in their respective git branches. 
If one dev commit and push changes then other dev have to pull the changes and then commit. Later they will have to merge the code, merge conflict sometimes occurs so you can resolve it and push the working code into production.
