Hello,

The project "Network Configuration Libraries" aims to create libraries
which would enable programmatic configuration and management of Network in
FreeBSD. The project currently focuses at developing `libroute`, which
would enable management of routing. I made the following progress in the
last couple of weeks.

* Developed a preliminary version of /lib/libroute, which is capable of
adding, modifying and deleting routes for IPv4 addresses. The code can be
found here:
https://github.com/ahsanbarkati/freebsd/tree/libroute/lib/libroute.

* A draft version of manual for the library, describing the functions with
an example usage can be found here:
https://ahsan.live/A-manual-to-libroute.html.

We look forward to your feedback for the library. Your feedback would be
extremely helpful for the design for the library.
