For a lot of code, I end up googling and finding many sources to see how things are done - documentation, forums, examples and fragments of other code on GitHub.
I should stress that I don't just copy/paste from proprietary code - but if I see they've had to call functions in a certain order to get something to work then I use that information. I think that's fair enough.
