5 | 5 | 👨💼 Great! Now we can customize the meta tags on our routes! Let's do a bit more
|
6 | 6 | for our profile pages.

| - 🦉 You'll notice that if you navigate to the `/users/kody` route, you'll see |
10 |
| - the `Profile | Epic Notes` in the title, which is expected. But if you |
11 |
| - navigate to a child path, like `/users/kody/notes`, you'll see only |
12 |
| - `Epic Notes` again. It may looks like this is an unexpected behavior as we |
13 |
| - might be expecting the children paths to inherit the parent's meta |
14 |
| - overrides. |
15 |

16 |
| - ## Use case: `/users/kody` and `/users/kody/notes` |
17 |

18 |
| - Let's focus on `/users/kody` and `/users/kody/notes` URL paths case for a |
19 |
| - while: regardless they have a parent-child relationship in terms of their |
20 |
| - paths, they *do not* have the same relashionship in the REMIX's layout |
21 |
| - hierarchy. This is how our pages are organized in terms of files |
22 |
| - inside of the `routes` directory: |
23 |
| - |
24 |
| - ```shell |
25 |
| - /users/kody <=> routes/users+/$username.tsx |
26 |
| - /users/kody/notes <=> routes/users+/$username_+/notes.tsx |
27 |
| - ``` |
28 |
| - That little underscore in the name of the folder `$username_+` means that |
29 |
| - the pages inside of it don't use the layout defined in the |
30 |
| - `routes/users+/$username.tsx` file (and consequently, they won't use the |
31 |
| - meta override defined over there). In other words: they aren't |
32 |
| - "layout-nested", even when *they are* "url-nested". In summary: |
33 |
| - - In terms of URL path: `/users/kody/notes` *is* a child of `/users/kody` |
34 |
| - - In terms of layout: `/users/kody/notes` *is not* a child of `/users/kody` |
35 |
| - |
36 |
| - The page in `/users/kody/notes` will, in fact, use the meta override from |
37 |
| - the first route module hierarchically above `routes/users+/$username.tsx`, |
38 |
| - which is the override we defined in the `root.tsx`. You can always have a |
39 |
| - better view of the layout-nesting by running `npx remix routes` in a |
40 |
| - terminal at the root of a remix project: |
41 |
| - |
42 |
| - ```shell |
43 |
| - ➜ playground :> npx remix routes |
44 |
| - <Routes> |
45 |
| - <Route file="root.tsx"> |
46 |
| - <Route index file="routes/index.tsx" /> |
47 |
| - <Route path="resources/healthcheck" file="routes/resources+/healthcheck.tsx" /> |
48 |
| - <Route path="users/:username" file="routes/users+/$username.tsx" /> |
49 |
| - <Route path="users/:username/notes" file="routes/users+/$username_+/notes.tsx"> |
50 |
| - <Route path=":noteId" file="routes/users+/$username_+/notes.$noteId.tsx" /> |
51 |
| - <Route path=":noteId/edit" file="routes/users+/$username_+/notes.$noteId_.edit.tsx" /> |
52 |
| - <Route index file="routes/users+/$username_+/notes.index.tsx" /> |
53 |
| - </Route> |

| 9 | +`Profile | Epic Notes` in the title, which is expected. But if you navigate to a |
| 10 | +child path, like `/users/kody/notes`, you'll see only `Epic Notes` again. It may |
| 11 | +look like this is an unexpected behavior as we might be expecting the children |
| 12 | +paths to inherit the parent's meta overrides. |

| 14 | +## Use case: `/users/kody` and `/users/kody/notes` |

| 30 | +when _they are_ "url-nested". In summary: |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +- In terms of URL path: `/users/kody/notes` _is_ a child of `/users/kody` |
| 33 | +- In terms of layout: `/users/kody/notes` _is not_ a child of `/users/kody` |
