Route

Concept a word Carolverse uses with a precise meaning

๐Ÿ“–What it means

The public address that points at a running app. Routes are generated from the registry, so an app's address follows its record rather than being typed by hand in two places.

โš–๏ธWhat it is NOT

The neighbours this word is most often confused with, and the line between them.

Not: Port

A route is the public address; the port is the local one behind it.

Not: API endpoint

A route serves a page or proxies an app; an endpoint answers a specific call.
