I’ve been doing this a lot more lately. Our repositories have been indexed for easy perusal and querying via an LLM, which lowers the barrier to entry significantly for myself who is chiefly concerned with understanding how things are built.

I think it’s incredibly important to develop that expertise and taste in good patterns through investing time and grit.

You posted a long time ago that you did this. I’ve been pondering a while where to begin, would I even understand what the code does? Need to make an attempt soon

I think AI tools can help a lot. Find one of the public-facing APIs of a small library and follow its implementation. That's the best way imo.
