When you find interesting pieces of code, look at the commit that brought it to life. Commits contain precious gems of information: you'll understand what files are related, who worked on which parts of the codebase, how the commit was tested, related discussions, etc.
Some people use graphical tools to visualize a codebase (e.g. codegraph). It can help you understand what pieces of code are related to each other.
