Hey/Hi, I realize that this isn't a specific laravel channel, but -- here's the question. New to laravel, trying to track down how/where a statement in a file within a test laravel works. the test file   resources/views/layout/app.blade.php

    the line..
      <a href="{{ route('properties') }}">PProperties</a>

 which then generates

      <a href="/">PProperties</a>

so in some function/method

       route('properties') ==>   "/"

 or    route:get "properties" gets xferred to "/" but, so far, I can't seem to track down where this might happen, or the flow of the logic. If anyone has any pointers, feel free to fire them to me! thanks The route() helper method is used to generate a URL to a named route. In your case, it's looking for a route called "properties". Do you have that defined in your routes/web.php file?
