Route Resource Controllers for CRUD Operations

Resource controllers simplifies CRUD operations and keeps codebase organized and maintainable by following RESTful practices.

// Define a resource route for a controller
Route::resource('posts', PostController::class);

// In PostController, implement resource methods

public function index() { /* List all posts */ }

public function create() { /* Show form to create a new post */ }

public function store(Request $request) { /* Store a new post */ }

public function show(Post $post) { /* Show a single post */ }

public function edit(Post $post) { /* Show form to edit a post */ }

public function update(Request $request, Post $post) { /* Update a post */ }

public function destroy(Post $post) { /* Delete a post */ }

Route Definition: Route::resource('posts', PostController::class) automatically generates routes for common CRUD operations, including index, create, store, show, edit, update, and destroy.

Controller Methods: Implement methods in PostController corresponding to the generated routes. This approach reduces repetitive code.
