What is this?
React Router Setup builds the React side of MernVerse.
Why should you care?
The SPA is how users see and change data.
See it live — copy this example
Run examples in your MernVerse client/ (Vite React) or server/ (Express) folders. Keep secrets in .env.
// React Router Setup
export function Panel({ title }) {
return <section><h2>{title}</h2></section>;
}

What happened?
- Prefer function components, hooks, and clear props over giant files.
