PeeringDB is looking at participating at an upcoming NANOG Hackathon.
One of the ideas for a theme is to improve the API. Specifically by
adding API calls for common use cases that people need to handle
outside of the API. Typically, by dumping the entire database to SQL
For example - given two IXes, which networks are present at both? We'd
like to make a list of such useful queries such that people don't have
to dump the database just to run them. A stretch goal would be to
expose into the website instead of requiring API calls.

This issue has some more detail, including a few existing ideas:

Comments there or in email to me would be super helpful. As always, if
there are other feature requests for PeeringDB, feel free to create an
issue in github (
https://github.com/peeringdb/peeringdb/issues/new/choose ) or in
email, even if they're not strictly Hackathon ideas. They are always
appreciated!

Thanks!

A nice feature could be, while logged in, to highlight the IXPs shared
with the ASN currently displayed.
