Handle Unmatched Routes with Fallback Routes


When no route is matched, Route Fallback can be used to handle it.

// Define your regular routes
Route::get('/', [HomeController::class, 'index'])->name('home');

// Define fallback route for unmatched routes
Route::fallback(function () {
    return response()->view('errors.404', [], 404);
});

Regular Routes: Define your typical routes as usual, handling the main application routes.

Fallback Route: Route::fallback(function () { ... }) specifies a fallback route that will be used if no other route matches. This is ideal for handling 404 errors or redirecting users to a custom error page.

Custom Response: response()->view('errors.404', [], 404) returns a custom view for 404 errors, providing a user-friendly error page.
