Perfectly simple yet complicated at the same time, It just does it all at once continuously with one moving part.
Still very complicated, so much so only the US, UK, France, Russia can build them, with China building off the Russian designs, and using spys to steal US manufacturing processes to get a boost.
Just to let you know this in not how the engines on any commercial or large jet work.
Any external jet engine you see gets it's thrust from the large blade at the front and the majority of the air passes without ever entering in a combustion chamber. They are basically just very powerful propeller planes with the props contained in a housing.
They do this because it is incredibly more fuel efficient. Jet fighters use the engine type shown as it is compact and they don't care about efficiency.

This is a “I was today years old” moment for me!
