💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'redirect' instead of 'view' causes a redirect instead of rendering.

The view function returns a view for the given name, which is how Laravel renders pages.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using lowercase or wrong controller name causes routing errors.

Controller names are case-sensitive and should match the class name exactly.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to create a route that accepts a 'post' parameter and calls 'show' method.

Bshow

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using method 'index' or 'create' instead of 'show' for single resource display.

The route parameter is wrapped in curly braces and the method called is 'show' to display a single post.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to define a POST route to 'store' method with middleware 'auth'.

Laravel

Route::[1]('/posts', [PostController::class, '[2]'])->middleware('[3]');

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

Aget

Bstore

Cauth

Dpost

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'get' instead of 'post' for data submission routes.

POST routes use post, the method to save data is store, and auth middleware protects routes for logged-in users.
