this happens a lot, I want to find out how something works but I don’t know the said programming language and so I can’t read the source code, I’ve tried looking up stuff in cheatsheets but they don’t really help that much and Search Engines are obviously useless for this since they can’t search symbols, so how do you read the source code without spending time learning the language ?

    Usually in the header there is a contact email. I’ve found that developers are usually pretty enthusiastic to help you to understand their coding if you get in touch with them. Don’t forget to thank them and contribute to the project if you can!
