The whole code of the AAO engine can be found in the following repository.

How to contribute to the AAO engine ?

First, here are the things you will need to contribute. Don't worry, it's all free

• A bitbucket.org account
  You can create a bitbucket account in seconds; even less if you have a Google account.
• Git software on your computer
  Git is the source control management tool used by AAO. You can download Git for your computer for free.

This AAO repository is public, as in everyone can read and download the code - however, only a select few (namely, myself at the moment) will ever be able to modify it directly.
In order to contribute to AAO, you will need to use the fork and pull request mechanism.
More explanations about the workflow on the repository's documentation.
