Some additional resources that i dug up;

1) Wayne Aitken from California State University has a 52-page Bourbaki, Theory of Sets, Chapter I, Description of Formal Mathematics: Summary and Commentary - https://public.csusm.edu/aitken_html/

This is a commentary in the sense that I sometimes give explicit comments, but also more subtly by my choices in changing terminology, phrasing, notation, or proof in an effort to clarify Bourbaki for myself and a modern reader. So to get the full Bourbaki experience, the reader should read this document alongside Bourbaki’s original. But if the reader just wants a good sense of what is in Bourbaki this document is reasonably complete. So this document can potentially be of service to two classes of readers: (1) readers of Bourbaki’s original first chapter who want to benefit from extra commentary and some indication on how the approach looks from a more modern point of view, and (2) readers who, without necessarily reading Bourbaki’s chapter, want to get a feel for Bourbaki’s approach, but from a more modern point of view.
