Natural underground water distribution in a desertic continent

I'm worldbuilding a continent that's mostly desertic (still trying to decide if sand or rocky desert, but definitely a hot desert). All the rain would fall on the edges of it, through a chain of mountain-ranges on all sides. I want said continent to have pockets of population, so I need to know how to distribute the water underground.

How can I draw a realistic network of underground aquifers (or where can I learn how to do it)? How will that translate in oases or locations where people might dig up wells?
