Routes are defined in the routes/web.php file.
📌 Example: Simple GET Route
Route::get('/hello', function () {
return "Hello, Laravel!";
});
Visiting /hello in the browser will display "Hello, Laravel!".
You can pass dynamic values using route parameters.
📌 Example: Route with a required parameter
Route::get('/user/{id}', function ($id) {
return "User ID: " . $id;
});
Visiting /user/5 will return "User ID: 5".
📌 Example: Providing a default value
Route::get('/user/{name?}', function ($name = 'Guest') {
return "Welcome, " . $name;
});
/user/Ali → "Welcome, Ali"/user/ → "Welcome, Guest"Instead of defining logic inside web.php, you can route to a controller method.
📌 Example: Using a Controller for Routing
use App\Http\Controllers\UserController;
Route::get('/users', [UserController::class, 'index']);
This calls the index() method in UserController.
Laravel routing makes URL management simple and flexible.
