This might be unusual but I would prefer to read someone's mental model of how the code works than the code itself. With thousands of files and thousands of lines of code it's difficult for me to work out how the code fits together.

If you document your mental model of how the code works, I can probably map the code to your mental model and understand the code.

I want/like people to create "entrypoint" packages/folders where entry points and component registries are found. Especially int main() {} So I can follow the control flow of the software.

I think too few people understand cornerstone technologies, including compilers and browsers.
