Routes map requests to application behavior. Controllers coordinate work, models represent persisted data, and Blade views render the response.

Worked example

Route::get('/courses', [CourseController::class, 'index']);

Put it into practice

Trace a course list request from its route through the controller to the returned Blade view.
