Adding unspecified GET parameters to Routes

A quick tip for the case if you need to add additional GET parameters to your route URL, but don't want to specify them in Routes file. Apparently, there's a simple way. Let's imagine we have this route: 
Route::get('/', 'HomeController@index')->name('homepage');
And then we add a link to it: 
Home
Now, what if you want to track this link with UTM parameters? Of course, you can do it like this: 
Home
But probably the logic of your campaign is defined outside of Blade view, so it would be convenient to pass these variables somehow. Guess what - we can write them as array: 
Home
Or, even better, pass these values as array of $utm_parameters and then have this: 
Home
The result URL will be the same: /?utm_source=internal&utm_medium=banner&utm_campaign=onboarding2017 Hope that helps!
