Guide on how universal-autoloader matches routes:

`
├── app.ts
├── routes
│ ├── index.ts // index routes
│ ├── posts
│ │ ├── index.ts
│ │ └── [id].ts // dynamic params
│ ├── likes
│ │ └── [...].ts // wildcard
│ ├── domains
│ │ ├── @[...] // wildcard with @ prefix
│ │ │ └── index.ts
│ ├── frontend
│ │ └── index.tsx // usage of tsx extension
│ ├── events
│ │ ├── (post).ts // dynamic method
│ │ └── (get).ts
│ └── users.ts
└── package.json
`

- /routes/index.ts → GET /
