Naming routes 

If the site is massive and you will need to change routes from time to time it is best to name the routes ..

.....)->name('articles.show');

then in blade : {{ route('articles.show', $article->id)}}. or you just write the article variable alone without the id and laravel will figure it out

and insid ethe controller:

for example in the update method, you do:

return redirect(route('articles.show', $article)); 

Another alternative is to visit the model and add the following method:

public function path()

{

return route('articles.show', $this);

}

and then instead of writing:

route('article.show', $article) , you do:

$article->path()
