Hey .. welcome in the club. Same here no compiler expirience. What I do is try to compile my own application and the mustella tests. In an error case I start to find the cause and try to fix it and if it's to difficult I create just a jira task with an example to reproduce it. In jira a label the bugs with "Falcon". There are already a few see [1]. The progress of falcon with mustella tests you find in a google spreadsheet [2] I think it's a productive way to to learn how falcon works and it really has a good documentation. I'm not used to that ;-).
