Sorry to disturb you Barry.

It's not a college project. I do have experience in PHP. I do have
experience in full stack development. I am new to IXP but I have a team who
have experience in IXP. Learning IXP is not an issue. I have some knowledge
of OpenFlow too. Laravel Programming isn't that difficult. My question was
where to start as a developer. If you don't have time then kindly give me
the source material on this. Like I have seen things in the documentation
for development.

This project is for the IXP at Islamabad, Pakistan. They do many things
manually. We have the funding to make that IXP the software-defined
exchange point. I am a research assistant on my part under the government
IT advisor and a Stanford doctorate Dr. Zartash Afzal Uzmi.

Although my knowledge could be low, I am working at the country level. We
intend to deploy two or more IXPs in the future in Pakistan.

With your little help, we at Pakistan can deploy your project and can add
value to your project of IXP Manager by making it SDN based IXP manager.
