Ask HN: How do you maintain personal annotations for code you don't control?
(ycombinator.com)
I spend significant time reading and understanding codebases that I don't control (open source libraries, internal legacy systems, etc.). As I build understanding, I need to document my insights, gotchas, and mental models - but these notes are purely personal and shouldn't be part of the actual codebase.
