"readable by a beginner" && "interesting and substantial 
information" might be hard to find. Did you mean front- or 
backend? If you want to show compiler u might look at 
https://github.com/dlang/dmd/blob/master/src/dmd/compiler.d for 
example.

But I think it might be better to begin with some kind of 
overview so you understand what you're looking at 🐢
