To fully understand some aspects of some solutions adopted in the nu+ backend, it is highly recommended to read about the general aspects of compiler structure and the LLVM architecture. In particular, a newbie must be aware of Basic Blocks, SSA (Static Single Assignment) form, AST (Abstract Syntax tree) and DAG Direct Acyclic Graph. Further informations can be retrieved from the dragonbook.
Other than the general aspects about compilers, it is recommended to read about the LLVM architecture, the LLVM Intermediate Representation and Tablegen. See the following textbook for other informations [http://books.tarsoit.com/Getting%20Started%20with%20LLVM%20Core%20Libraries.pdf Getting Started with LLVM Core Libraries] and LLVM Cookbook.
