I've been downloading other people's IFs to see how they're put together but, while playing these games does give you a feel for the sorts of things people override when writing an Inform IF piece (the "instead of taking [thing], say [this]" kind of stuff) it only really shows what is done, not how it's done.
However, one of the games I downloaded recently was "Gardening for Beginners" by Juhana Leinonen, which included the source text! I added it in to an Inform project to get a look at it. It's great to be able to see the structure of an entire story from beginning to end. I think I'll be looking at this for a while as I try out new things. Thanks, Juhana!
