Creating the routes

- [Instructor] In our very first basic example…we added the routes directly to a main application script.…While this is valid, today it's best practice…to move routes into dedicated files…and create modular sub-applications using express router.…By creating such sub-apps, routes are not dependent…on the overall side structure and easier to maintain,…especially when a team works on the routes.…When looking at the html side,…we already saw the different route we will need.…So we have this index page.…

Then we also have the route…that should give us a list of all speakers.…Then we will also need a speakers detail page…and a route that gives us the feedback page.…Let's create those routes now using express router.…For that, I use a pattern that I found to be very useful.…We will turn our route files into functions…that can take parameters.…By doing so, we can easily pass down information…like configuration data to all routes.…

So I am getting started by creating a folder routes…inside our server folder,…and in there, I create a file, index.js.…
