For the DNS system, I think it is important to understand some basic concepts, such as zone definition, different record types, zone transfer, dynamic update, DNS authorization, and some specific DNS knowledge such as split DNS and DNSSEC. With these basic concepts, you can get started. When learning DNS development, I was using this book "Pro DNS & BIND". This is a really good book for description of DNS details such as package form. https://www.oreilly.com/library/view/pro-dns-and/9781430230489/ BTW, I have written the perl client for Cloudflare DNS API, which you can look here. https://metacpan.org/pod/Net::Cloudflare::DNS Thanks.
