Stop Writing Your Routes
summary
Claims that routes no longer need to be written: a plugin generates typed routes from the filesystem so editors get auto-complete for route names and immediate TypeScript errors instead of runtime 404s. Implementation uses unplugin-vue-router to emit an auto-generated route d.ts compatible with Vite/Rollup/Webpack; an earlier heavy generic-based approach slowed dev servers past ~50 routes and was replaced by a simpler name→params map. Pages can also export data loaders that dedupe requests and support SSR.
