Ingo's EuroBSDCon 2014 tutorial slides might be a good place to start:

https://www.openbsd.org/papers/eurobsdcon2014-mandoc-slides.pdf

It should contain all the important pointers and while mandoc has
evolved since then, I think it shouldn't be too outdated.

One of my favorite pages is the (relatively) new sh(1) manual, but
usually things aren't that complex :)
