Ø The essential function of any web application framework is to take requests from a user and deliver responses, usually via HTTP(S).

Ø This means defining an application’s routes is the first and most important project to tackle when learning a web framework; without routes, you have no ability to interact with the end user.

Ø In this chapter we will examine routes in Laravel and show how to define them, how to point them to the code they should execute, and how to use Laravel’s routing tools to handle a diverse array of routing needs.
