Are there any recommended books or videos to learn about the

the principles of compilation?
Check out this video: [DConf 2016 Day 2 Keynote: Spelunking D

Just browsing [dmd's source
code](https://github.com/dlang/dmd/tree/master/src/dmd#readme)
and watching [dmd's Pull Request
queue](https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pulls) is a good way to get
familiar with the code and see what a bug fix looks like. Try
to start with something small, like error message improvements
or [refactorings listed in the contributing
guide](https://github.com/dlang/dmd/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#dmd-best-practices). If you have any questions along the way, just ask them.
Thanks！
