I want to create a Netbox plugin.
I have experience with Python, Netbox API, Flask, FastAPI, but have no experience with Django. How should I start?
Please advise any useful resources, books, YouTube or courses to gain experience.

I acknowledge that Django serves is the foundation, but I am mostly looking for tutorials that provide step-by-step guidance on creating Netbox plugin. |

There is pretty good documentation in NetBox docs: https://docs.netbox.dev/en/stable/plugins/development/ Here is a NetBox plugin development tutorial: https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox-plugin-tutorial There is also a package cookiecutter-netbox-plugin (https://github.com/netbox-community/cookiecutter-netbox-plugin) that will scaffold a base plugin that you can extend that makes it easier to get started. |

In addition, the netbox shell (nbshell) is a good environment for interactively playing with the Django ORM. Before you start on plugins, you might want to write a few reports or custom scripts, both of which use the ORM but are simpler to get started with. There are examples of these in the customizations repository. |
