What is Pages Router?
The Pages Router in Next.js is a file-system based router built around the pages directory. Each file in the pages directory becomes a route based on its file name. For example, a file named about.js would create a route at /about. This approach simplifies routing by automatically mapping files to routes, making it easy to create and manage different pages within your application.
