Customizing Routes

What is Customizing Routes?
Customizing routes allows developers to define specific URL patterns and map them to particular controller actions. This provides flexibility in designing user-friendly and SEO-optimized URLs, deviating from the default Rails conventions. By modifying the routes.rb file, you can create custom routes that cater to the unique needs of your application, including specifying HTTP methods, defining route parameters, and using regular expressions for pattern matching.
