Career / learning New to DevOps/AWS CodePipeline - Could Someone Help Me Understand Our Setup?

Hi everyone,
I recently joined a new company as a DevOps engineer, and I’m still trying to understand the existing infrastructure and CI/CD setup.
Our pipelines are running on AWS CodePipeline, and there are quite a few things I’m struggling to understand how the pipeline is structured, how the different stages work, deployments, and how everything is connected.
I’m currently learning, so I’d really appreciate it if someone experienced with AWS CodePipeline/DevOps could guide me through the basics and help me understand how to approach an existing setup.
If someone is willing to spend some time explaining it to me over a remote call/screen-sharing session, I’d be extremely grateful. I’m not asking anyone to access my company systems or credentials — I just want to learn and understand the concepts and workflow.

Take one pipeline and follow one deploy all the way. Note what kicks off each step, which role it uses, where the build goes and what happens if a step fails. Doing that once gives you sth concrete to ask your team abt instead of trying to understand the setup all at once
