Learning how to read LLVM code

I've been coding production C++ code for a bit now but still struggle to read LLVM code (for example llvm-project/libcxx/src /atomic.cpp. Any tips on how to start understanding this? Is there a textbook or guide on common patterns and practices for this type of code?
