I don't think you need to (or even should) show them the code. However, building a powerpoint slide deck describing the project and it's current state might be a step in the right direction. On the other hand, a new hire only needs to be at the desired level of skillset in order to work on your code. Maybe the design has been too difficult to grasp, and if that's always been the case, maybe you've inadvertently discovered that your app design needs to be re-imagined.
