Route

In the context of web development, a route defines a rule for how an application responds to a client request to a particular endpoint, which is essentially a specific URL path. It maps a URL pattern to a specific handler function, controller action, or resource within the application's backend (server-side routing) or frontend (client-side routing in Single Page Applications). Routes are fundamental to defining the application's navigational structure and how users access different parts of a website or web service.
