https://developer.salesforce.com/trailhead/lightning_components/lightning_components_creating

From Setup, click Develop | Lightning Components

but that option does not exists for me.

Hi

This is for Salesforce.com ORG UI not FORCE.COM IDE . 

Login into salesforce.com by login.salesforce.com (for prod or dev account) or test.salesforce.com (sandbox)

Click on Setup>Develop>Lightning Components

Hi Eli,

Try creating a new developer org as Lightning framework is still beta and not GA(General Availability). Please create a new developer org and it would give you option to activate lightnignt components.

Thank you.
