previously all the of the page routing was handlede through controller
organized by CRUD methods. it worked, but organizing by CRUD and not
purpose resulted in more time spent looking for a specific task through
controllers, so it turned out not to an effecient way of organizing.
so routing has been completely reorganized into laravel's web routing
section and methods have been moved to their appropriate controller so
tasks are much easier to find
front facing page routing turned out to be a bit more tricky that
anticipated do the overap of routing paths, but it only affects dynamic
page rendering and there's a patch in place that handles that issue
until a better solution is found. Rendered HTML pages works fine.
whew!
dropped in js from the old site to begin the process of wiring up the
API, but this time around, scripts will be served directly in browswer
rather than being transpiled through NPM/Babel, eliminating the need for
NPM.
also scripting will new modularized and served specifically for the
requirements of the page loading it. no more front loading everything.
only script that is needed for that page will be retrieved. if no
scripting is needed, none will be loaded.
The only casualty so far has been syntax highlighting due to prismjs
still being a common js module, but either this will be replaced with
another library or a custom syntax enginge will be created at a later
date
