File-based routing, explained
Hasnae6 min read

The __root.tsx route owns the HTML document and renders an Outlet for its
children. Every other file under src/routes maps to a URL by its name.
Dynamic segments
Dynamic segments use a $ prefix: blog/$slug.tsx matches /blog/anything.
The matched value arrives as a typed route param, so you never reach for a
loosely-typed params bag.
The generated route tree
The route tree is generated for you into routeTree.gen.ts whenever you run the
dev server or a build — you never hand-maintain it. Because it is generated,
navigation, params, and loader data are all checked at compile time.
