Your question leaves a lot of room for interpretation.
Ayufan did not compile the os.
Ayufan took the kernel and device tree from rockchip's repro https://github.com/rockchip-linux/kernel, tweaked it and compiled it.
The base system - all the debs - come from Ubuntu. I don't think Ayufan compiled them on his own. Maybe a few? The starting point was then probably the source debs.
Read Daniel's installer https://github.com/daniel-thompson/pineb...-installer script to see how Debian gets installed onto an disk. From there, one can shrink the filesystem and dd into an image for distribution.
