{{pkg.description}}
- Not bound to any environment, usable on both client & server side
- Declarative route definitions, incl. wildcards for matching rest args
- Parametric routes, each param with optional value coercion & validation
- Route authentication handler to enable/disable routes based on other state factors
- Fallback route redirect
- Enforced initial route (optional)
- Route formatting (with params & rest args)
- Optional HTML5 history & hash fragment support
