The Complete Strapi™ Course with Plugins and Deployment - Creating Custom Routes

The video tutorial explains how to create a custom router in a web application. It covers the necessary file structure and parameters, including method, path, handler function, and optional configuration. The configuration object can include oath policies and middlewares, with default settings applied if omitted. An example demonstrates creating a custom route file, adding routes with methods, paths, and handlers. The tutorial also mentions using route parameters and regular expressions.
