Routing
Always try and keep your endpoints RESTful wherever possible, using the seven operations as described in the RESTful controllers documentation.
// http://example.com/articles
Route::get('articles', 'ArticleController@index')->name('articles.index');
<a href="{{ route('articles.index') }}">
Articles
</a>
Route parameters
When specifying parameters, use the singular form of the resource name.
// Good
Route::get('articles/{article}', 'ArticleController@show')->name('articles.show');
// Bad
Route::get('articles/{articles}', 'ArticleController@show')->name('articles.show');
When declaring nested route names, use the plural form of both the parent and child resources.
// Good
Route::post('articles/{article}/comments', 'ArticleCommentController@store')
->name('articles.comments.store');
// Bad
Route::post('articles/{article}/comments', 'ArticleCommentController@store')
->name('article.comments.store');
Route declaration
When declaring routes in your application, be sure to always define the HTTP verb first. This makes it much easier to visually scan the routes file.
// Good
Route::get('articles', 'ArticleController@index')->name('articles.index');
Route::post('articles/{article}/comments', 'ArticleCommentController@store')
->name('article.comments.store');
// Bad
Route::name('articles.index')->get('articles', 'ArticleController@index');
Route::name('article.comments.store')
->post('articles/{article}/comments', 'ArticleCommentController@store');
