An often overlooked yet vital skill for mastering the MVC pattern or similar architectures is understanding their core principles. Here, we demystify the concept and break it down in a clear, easy-to-follow way:
MVC Pattern Overview
Model: Handles the data and business logic (Example: Fetching or storing data in the database).
View: Displays the data to the user (Example: HTML, templates, or the user interface).
Controller: Acts as the “middleman,” coordinating between the Model and the View.
But… how does the app know which controller to call when the user interacts with it? That’s where routes (or the router) come in.
Curious to know? Let’s demystify,…
What is the Router’s Role?
The router is like a traffic cop. It directs requests from users to the correct controller function based on the URL they are trying to access. For example:
If a user visits yourapp.com/login, the router ensures the Login Controller is triggered.
If they go to yourapp.com/profile, the router activates the Profile Controller.
