Curious if there are any recommendations for learning new codebases. 

I am currently fighting a rather complex codebase for a web app and wondering 
if the community has any tricks for staying sane when trying to spin up on 
new 
projects.  

Thus far I have played a good bit with folding, which I like the idea of 
because 
it makes it easy to skip over or dig in on a block, and while I like the 
notion of 
it, I hate the actual experience. 

Right now, I am mostly maintaining a notes file on the project as I go and 
learn each piece, can get clever I think and drop links into the files, or 
even sort of build my own annotate by binding a keypress to jump to my 
org file and come back. 

Any tools or techniques I should add to my bag of tricks?
