Overview
A Dart package that converts path patterns like '/user/:id' into regular expressions for route matching. It enables dynamic path parsing by supporting parameter capture, wildcards, and optional segments. Ideal for building routing systems in Flutter apps, it provides a lightweight solution for matching URLs against defined routes. The package is compatible across all major platforms and integrates seamlessly with existing navigation logic.
