When I started doing my research into the DX7 I pored over Dexed's source code to understand how its emulation worked. It was really amazing to discover what an interesting legacy its source code has! The bulk of Dexed's code is derived from Raph Levien's (hi Raph!) Music Synthesizer For Android (msfa). However there's additional code derived from Steffen Ohrendorf's ppplay[0], which in turn builds upon different people's research, reverse-engineering, and experimentation going back decades. Going through it, I really felt like I was looking at something organic built not just from, but upon the passion, and dedication of so many different talented people, over many years. Very cool!
