   Where do you get the very minimal of the emacs code?
   For anyone to contribute to emacs, there has to be
   some very minimal code to be read and understood and
   also documenting the journey for future reference
   when the person starts forgetting.

The comments in the C source code are detailed.  If your
learning style is top-down, i would suggest starting at
keyboard.c, "Keyboard and mouse input; editor command loop".

FWIW, this was my approach (re-)porting Emacs to VMS.
I was completely ignorant back then, now, less so.
