ESLint: under the hood
Now, those concepts are a whole entire world to explore, and this is out of the scope of this article. I suggest the reading of the Chapters 4, 5 and 6 of the book Crafting Interpreters by Robert Nystrom for a wider (but still practical) understanding of those subjects. Another practical great resource to look at is The SuperTiny Compiler. To explore them from a theorical point of view, you can find A LOT of resources from books or courses online.

GCC uses GCC to compile itself
I am currently writing a much more intricate version of the Super Tiny Compiler (https://github.com/jamiebuilds/the-super-tiny-compiler) in Rust, only I plan on handling many basic operations, essentially a compiler for a MUCH simpler version of Go. Great project idea btw, for anyone who wants to explore compilers. But in doing so, have really found a new respect for just what is going on when you gcc -o garbageprogram mytrashcode.c

how would you make a programming language if you were a complete beginner?
Here, at least take this floatie: https://github.com/jamiebuilds/the-super-tiny-compiler

Any good resources for reading code?
Outside of this, I recently learned about The Super Tiny Compiler which was a project written to be read. Mind you, it has a vast amount of comments, which may be more of a leg-up than you're asking for.

Ask HN: Guidance on writing a source to source compiler (transpiler)
You could start here:
https://github.com/jamiebuilds/the-super-tiny-compiler
That converts from lisp-like to javascript. Really though this is a big field, and there are lots of resources out there.
To get started look at your input language; you'll need to lex and parse that. Then massage the parsed structure into the appropriate output.
You can see me convert brainfuck to C, or x86 assembly language here:

Ask HN: Where can I find a primer on how computers boot?
Can't remember if it covers more practical stuff like GRUB but I really like https://littleosbook.github.io/

why if python is turing complete that means that everything can be created in it, but nobody decides to create things like OS, game engines and compilers and even if they do they use dozens of libraries and frameworks that are writen in languages like C, C++ or maybe Rust, why it is so?
A good place to start learning about OS programming is https://littleosbook.github.io/
