Quick Tip

Custom Resource Route Names

When using Resource Controllers, in routes/web.php you can specify ->names() parameter, so the URL prefix in the browser and the route name prefix you use all over Laravel project may be different.

Route::resource('p', ProductController::class)->names('products');

So this code above will generate URLs like /p, /p/{id}, /p/{id}/edit, etc. But you would call them in the code by route('products.index'), route('products.create'), etc.
