-# Navigation Failures
-
-Some specific operations can cause a failure within router operations. The
-subchapters contain information on how the router lets us handle such failures.
-
-# External Navigation Failure
-
-> This section doesn't apply when specifying a `target` on a [`Link`]. See the
-> chapter about [external navigation](../navigation/external.md) for more
-> details.
-
-When we ask the router to navigate to an external target, either through
-[programmatic navigation](../navigation/programmatic.md) or a
-[redirect](../routes/multiple-and-redirect.md#redirects) the router needs to
-navigate to an external target without being able to rely on an anchor element.
-
-This will only work in the browser, when using either [`WebHistory`] or
-[`WebHashHistory`].
-
-## Failure handling
-
-When the router encounters an external navigation it cannot fulfill, it changes
-the path to `/` and shows some fallback content.
-
-> You can detect if the router is in the external navigation failure handling
-> state by [checking](../navigation/name.md#check-if-a-name-is-present) if the
-> [`FailureExternalNavigation`] name is present.
-
-The default fallback explains to the user that the navigation was unsuccessful
-and provides them with a [`Link`] to fulfill it manually. It also allows them to
-go back to the previous page.
-
-You can override it by setting the `failure_external_navigation` value of the
-[`RouterConfiguration`]. The external URL will be provided via the
-[`FailureExternalNavigation`] parameter.

 like this:

-However, we cannot do that when using the router for two reasons:
+However, we cannot do that when using the router for three reasons:

 1. Anchor tags make the browser load a new page from the server. This takes a
   lot of time, and it is much faster to let the router handle the navigation
   client-side.
 2. Navigation using anchor tags only works when the app is running inside a
   browser. This means we cannot use them inside apps using Dioxus Desktop.
+3. Anchor tags cannot check if the target page exists. This means we cannot
+   prevent accidentally linking to non-existent pages.

 To solve these problems, the router provides us with a [`Link`] component we can
 use like this:

 ```rust, no_run
-# // Hidden lines (like this one) make the documentation tests work.
-# extern crate dioxus;
-# use dioxus::prelude::*;
-# extern crate dioxus_router;
-# use dioxus_router::prelude::*;
-fn SomeComponent(cx: Scope) -> Element {
-    render! {
-        Link {
-            target: NavigationTarget::Internal(String::from("/some/path")),
-            "Link text"
-        }
-        Link {
-            target: "/some/path", // short form
-            "Other link text"
-        }
-    }
-}
+{{#include ../../../examples/links.rs:nav}}
 ```

 The `target` in the example above is similar to the `href` of a regular anchor
 element. However, it tells the router more about what kind of navigation it
-should perform:
+should perform. It accepts something that can be converted into a
+[`NavigationTarget`]:

- The example uses [`Internal`]. We give it an arbitrary path that will be
-  merged with the current URL.
- [`Named`] allows us to navigate within our app using predefined names.
-  See the chapter about [named navigation](./name.md) for more details.
- [`External`] allows us to navigate to URLs outside of our app. See the
-  chapter about [external navigation](./external.md) for more details.
+- The example uses a Internal route. This is the most common type of navigation.
+  It tells the router to navigate to a page within our app by passing a variant of a [`Routable`] enum. This type of navigation can never fail if the link component is used inside a router component.
+- [`External`] allows us to navigate to URLs outside of our app. This is useful
+  for links to external websites. NavigationTarget::External accepts an URL to navigate to. This type of navigation can fail if the URL is invalid.

-# Named Navigation
-
-When creating large applications, it can become difficult to keep track of all
-routes and how to navigate to them. It also can be hard to find all links to
-them, which makes it difficult to change paths.
-
-To solve these problems, the router implements named navigation. When we define
-our routes we can give them arbitrary, unique names (completely independent from
-the path) and later ask the router to navigate to those names. The router will
-automatically create the actual path to navigate to, even inserting required
-parameters.
-
-_Named_ navigation has a few advantages over _path-based_ navigation:
-
- Links can be created without knowing the actual path.
- It is much easier to find all links to a specific route.
- The router knows what links are invalid (and will panic in debug builds).
-
-> When the router encounters an invalid link in a release build, it has to
-> handle that problem. You can hook into that process, to display a custom error
-> message. See the chapter about
-> [named navigation failures](../failures/named.md).
-
-> The router will automatically define the name [`RootIndex`] to refer to the
-> root index route (`/`).
->
-> It will also add other names (all of them are in the prelude module) in
-> certain conditions. None of these names can be used for app defined routes.

-## Outlet depth override
-
-When nesting [`Outlet`]s, they communicate with each other. This allows the
-nested [`Outlet`] to render the content of the nested route.
-
-We can override the detected value. Be careful when doing so, it is incredibly
-easy to create an unterminated recursion. See below for an example of that.
-
-```rust, no_run
-# // Hidden lines (like this one) make the documentation tests work.

-# use dioxus::prelude::*;
-# extern crate dioxus_router;
-# use dioxus_router::{history::MemoryHistory, prelude::*};

-fn RootContent(cx: Scope) -> Element {
-    render! {
-        h1 { "Root" }
-        Outlet { }

-            )
-        }
-    );
-
-    render! {
-        Outlet {
-            depth: 1
-        }
-    }
-}
-#
-# let mut vdom = VirtualDom::new(App);
-# vdom.rebuild();
-# let html = dioxus_ssr::render(&vdom);
-# assert_eq!(html, "<h2>Nested</h2>");

-### Outlet recursion
-
-This code will create a crash due to an unterminated recursion using
-[`Outlet`]s.

-```
-
-The [`Outlet`] in the `App` component has no parent [`Outlet`], so its depth
-will be `0`. When rendering for the path `/`, it therefore will render the
-`Content` component.
-
-The `Content` component will render an `h1` and an [`Outlet`]. That [`OUtlet`]
-would usually have a depth of `1`, since it is a descendant of the [`Outlet`] in
-the `App` component. However, we override its depth to `0`, so it will render
-the `Content` component.
-
-That means the `Content` component will recurse until someone (e.g. the OS) puts
-a stop to it.

-# Query
-
-Some apps use the query part of the URL to encode information. The router allows
-you to easily access the query, as well as set it when navigating.
-
-## Accessing the query
-
-The [`use_route`] hook allows us to access the current query in two ways. The
-returned `struct` contains a `query` field, that contains the query (without the
-leading `?`).
-
-```rust, no_run
-# // Hidden lines (like this one) make the documentation tests work.

-
-    let query = route.query.clone().unwrap();
-
-    // ...
-    # unimplemented!()
-}
-```
-
-## Setting the query
-
-When navigating we can tell the router to change the query. However, the method
-we use to do this is very different, depending on how we specify our target.
-
-### [`Internal`] and [`External`]
-
-When using [`Internal`] or [`External`] we have to append our query manually.

-```rust, no_run
-# // Hidden lines (like this one) make the documentation tests work.

-        Link {
-            target: NavigationTarget::External("https://dioxuslab.com?query=yes".into()),
-            "External target"
-        }
-    }

-
-### [`Named`]
-

+# Redirects
+
+In some cases, we may want to redirect our users to another page whenever they
+open a specific path. We can tell the router to do this with the `#[redirect]`
+attribute.
+
+The `#[redirect]` attribute accepts a route and a closure with all of the parameters defined in the route. The closure must return a [`NavigationTarget`].
+
+In the following example, we will redirect everybody from `/myblog` and `/myblog/:id` to `/blog` and `/blog/:id` respectively

-# Catch All Routes
-
-Many modern web apps store parameters within their current path. This allows
-users to share URLs that link to a specific bit of content. We can create this
-functionality with catch all routes.
-
-> If you want to change what route is active based on the format of the
-> parameter, see [Matching Routes](./matching.md).
-
-> The parameter will be URL decoded.
-
-## Creating a content component
-
-We start by creating a component that uses the parameters value.
-
-We can get the current state of the router using the [`use_route`] hook. From
-that state we can extract the current value of our parameter by using a key we
-will later also define on our route.
-
-> It is **VERY IMPORTANT** to drop the object returned by the [`use_route`]
-> hook once our component finished rendering. Otherwise the entire router will
-> be frozen.
-
-> The [`use_route`] hook can only be used in components nested within a
-> component that called [`use_router`].
-
-```rust, no_run
-# // Hidden lines (like this one) make the documentation tests work.
-# extern crate dioxus;
-use dioxus::prelude::*;

-
-    render! {
-        p { "Hello, {name}!" }
-    }
-}
-```
-
-## Defining the routes
-
-Now we can define our route. Unlike a fixed [`Route`], a [`ParameterRoute`]
-needs two arguments to be created.
-
-> Also note that each [`Segment`] can have exactly one parameter or
-> [fallback route](./fallback.md).
->
-> For that reason, the example below would not work in practice, but showing
-> both forms (explicit and short) is more important for this example.
-
-```rust, no_run
-# // Hidden lines (like this one) make the documentation tests work.
-# extern crate dioxus;
-# use dioxus::prelude::*;
-# extern crate dioxus_router;
-# use dioxus_router::prelude::*;
-# fn Greeting(cx: Scope) -> Element { unimplemented!() }
-#
-struct Name;
-
-fn App(cx: Scope) -> Element {
-    use_router(
-        cx,
-        &|| RouterConfiguration {
-            ..Default::default()
-        },
-        &|| {
-           Segment::empty()
-            .catch_all(ParameterRoute::content::<Name>(comp(Greeting)))
-            .catch_all((comp(Greeting), Name { })) // same in short
-        }
-    );
-
-    // ...
-    # unimplemented!()
-}
-```
-
-## Interaction with other routes
-
-Each individual [`Segment`] can only ever have one active route. This means that
-when a [`Segment`] has more than just a catch all route, the router has to
-decide which is active. It does that this way:
-
-0. If the segment is not specified (i.e. `/`), then the index route will be
-   active.
-1. If a [_fixed_](./index.md#fixed-routes) route matches the current path, it
-   will be active.
-2. If a [_matching_ route](./matching.md) matches the current path, it will be
-   active. _Matching_ routes are checked in the order they are defined.
-3. If neither a _fixed_ nor a _matching_ route is active, the _catch all_ route
-   or [_fallback_ route](./fallback.md) will be.
-
-Step 0 means that if we want a parameter to be empty, that needs to be specified
-by the path, i.e. `//`.
-
-> Be careful with using catch all routes on the root [`Segment`]. Navigating to
-> paths starting with `//` will **NOT** work. This is not a limitation of the
-> router, but rather of how relative URLs work.
->
-> If you absolutely need an empty parameter on the root [`Segment`], a URL like
-> this _could_ work:
->
-> - `https://your-site.example//` for web sites
-> - `dioxus://index.html//` for desktop apps

-# Fallback Routes
-
-Sometimes the router might be unable to find a route for the provided path. We
-might want it to show a prepared error message to our users in that case.
-Fallback routes allow us to do that.
-
-> This is especially important for use cases where users can manually change the
-> path, like web apps running in the browser.
-
-## A single global fallback
-
-To catch all cases of invalid paths within our app, we can simply add a fallback
-route to our root [`Segment`].

-    render! {
-        h1 { "Error 404 - Not Found" }
-        p { "The page you asked for doesn't exist." }
-    }

-#     "<h1>Error 404 - Not Found</h1><p>The page you asked for doesn't exist.</p>"
-# );
-```
-
-## More specific fallback routes
-
-In some cases we might want to show different fallback content depending on what
-section of our app the user is in.
-
-For example, our app might have several settings pages under `/settings`, such
-as the password settings `/settings/password` or the privacy settings
-`/settings/privacy`. When our user is in the settings section, we want to show
-them _"settings not found"_ instead of _"page not found"_.
-
-We can easily do that by setting a fallback route on our nested [`Segment`]. It
-will then replace the global fallback whenever our [`Segment`] was active.
-
-Note the `.clear_fallback(false)` part. If we didn't add this, the fallback
-content would be rendered inside the `Settings` component.

 # Defining Routes

-When creating a router we need to pass it a [`Segment`]. It tells the router
-about all the routes of our app.
+When creating a [`Routable`] enum, we can define routes for our application using the `route("path")` attribute.

-## Example content
+## Route Segments

-To get a good understanding of how we define routes we first need to prepare
-some example content, so we can see the routing in action.
+Each route is made up of segments. Most segments are separated by `/` characters in the path.
+
+There are four fundamental types of segments:
+
+1. [Static segments](#static-segments) are fixed strings that must be present in the path.
+2. [Dynamic segments](#dynamic-segments) are types that can be parsed from a segment.
+3. [Catch-all segments](#catch-all-segments) are types that can be parsed from multiple segments.
+4. [Query segments](#query-segments) are types that can be parsed from the query string.
+
+Routes are matched:
+
+- First, from most specific to least specific (Static then Dynamic then Catch All) (Query is always matched)
+- Then, if multiple routes match the same path, the order in which they are defined in the enum is followed.
+
+## Static segments
+
+Fixed routes match a specific path. For example, the route `#[route("/about")]` will match the path `/about`.

 ```rust, no_run
-# // Hidden lines (like this one) make the documentation tests work.
-# extern crate dioxus;
-use dioxus::prelude::*;
-# extern crate dioxus_router;
-use dioxus_router::prelude::*;
-
-fn Index(cx: Scope) -> Element {
-    render! {
-        h1 { "Welcome to our test site!" }
-    }
-}
-
-fn Other(cx: Scope) -> Element {
-    render! {
-        p { "some other content" }
-    }
-}
+{{#include ../../../examples/static_segments.rs:route}}
 ```

-## Index routes
+## Dynamic Segments

-The easiest thing to do is to define an index route.
+Dynamic segments are in the form of `:name` where `name` is
+the name of the field in the route variant. If the segment is parsed
+successfully then the route matches, otherwise the matching continues.

-Index routes act very similar to `index.html` files in most web servers. They
-are active, when we don't specify a route.
-
-> Note that we wrap our `Index` component with [`comp`]. This is because of
-> rust type system requirements.
+The segment can be of any type that implements `FromStr`.

 ```rust, no_run
-# // Hidden lines (like this one) make the documentation tests work.
-# extern crate dioxus;
-# use dioxus::prelude::*;
-# extern crate dioxus_router;
-# use dioxus_router::prelude::*;
-# fn Index(cx: Scope) -> Element { unimplemented!() }
-#
-fn App(cx: Scope) -> Element {
-    use_router(
-        cx,
-        &|| RouterConfiguration {
-            ..Default::default()
-        },
-        &|| Segment::content(comp(Index))
-    );
-
-    // ...
-    # unimplemented!()
-}
+{{#include ../../../examples/dynamic_segments.rs:route}}
 ```

-## Fixed routes
+## Catch All Segments

-It is almost as easy to define a fixed route.
+Catch All segments are in the form of `:...name` where `name` is the name of the field in the route variant. If the segments are parsed successfully then the route matches, otherwise the matching continues.

-Fixed routes work similar to how web servers treat files. They are active, when
-specified in the path. In the example, the path must be `/other`.
+The segment can be of any type that implements `FromSegments`. (Vec<String> implements this by default)

+Catch All segments must be the _last route segment_ in the path (query segments are not counted) and cannot be included in nests.

-# Matching Routes

-## Matcher

-For example, you could (but probably shouldn't) implement a matcher, that
-matches all values with an even number of characters:

-## Multiple Components

-side by side. The router allows us to do this. For more details see the section
-about [named `Outlet`s](../outlets.md#named-outlets).

-## Redirects
-
-In some cases we may want to redirect our users to another page whenever they
-open a specific path. We can tell the router to do this when defining our
-routes.
-
-> Redirects to external pages only work in certain conditions. For more details
-> see the chapter about [external navigation failures](../failures/external.md).

+If you define a dynamic segment in a nest, it will be available to all child routes and layouts.

-## Sitemaps with parameter names
-
-The first variant to generate sitemaps is very simple. It finds all routes
-within the [`Segment`] and adds them to the returned `Vec`.
-
-Matching and parameter routes are represented by their `key`, prefixed with `\`.
-Besides that `\`, all paths are URL encoded.
-
-```rust, no_run
-# // Hidden lines (like this one) make the documentation tests work.

-# use dioxus::prelude::*;
-# extern crate dioxus_router;
-# use dioxus_router::prelude::*;

-# fn Home(cx: Scope) -> Element { unimplemented!() }
-# fn Fixed(cx: Scope) -> Element { unimplemented!() }

-#                 Segment::empty().fixed("nested", comp(Nested))
-#             )
-#         )
-#         .catch_all((comp(Parameter), ParameterName { }))
-# }
-
-let expected = vec![
-    "/",
-    "/fixed",
-    "/fixed/nested",
-    // Usually, here would be a fourth result representing the parameter route.
-    // However, due to mdbook the name for this file would constantly change,
-    // which is why we cannot show it. It would look something like this:
-    // "/\\your_crate::ParameterName",
-];
-let mut sitemap = prepare_routes().gen_sitemap();
-sitemap.remove(3); // see above
-assert_eq!(sitemap, expected);
-```
-
-## Sitemaps with actual parameter values
-
-The second variant to generate sitemaps is a bit more involved. When it
-encounters a parameter route, it inserts all values with a matching `key` that
-were provided to it.
-
-Matching routes only add their path if the value matches their regex.
-
-All paths are URL encoded.

+# Static Generation
+
+## Getting the Sitemap
+
+The [`Routable`] trait includes an associated [`SITE_MAP`] constant that contains the map of all of the routes in the enum.
+
+By default, the sitemap is a tree of (static or dynamic) RouteTypes, but it can be flattened into a list of individual routes with the `.flatten()` method.
+
+## Generating a Sitemap
+
+To statically render pages, we need to flatten the route tree and generate a file for each route that contains only static segments:
+
+```rust, no_run
+{{#include ../../../../packages/router/examples/static_generation.rs}}
+```
