how does one start developing roms?

[throcker]

hey! here is my noobish question.
I want to learn how to port and compile roms, fix bugs, tweak...you know, dev roms...
I'm not interested on themes, apks, I just want to make functional roms

I have a lot of free time and I learn quickly...I'm on xda all the day, every day, every hour...now I want to do something for the community...:highfive:

can someone help me? are there guides, tutorials, or is there a point to start from?
sorry for english mistakes and thank you for reading this.
