+# Routers
+
+> Resource routing allows you to quickly declare all of the common routes for a given resourceful controller. Instead of declaring separate routes for your index... a resourceful route declares them in a single line of code.
+>
+> &mdash; [Ruby on Rails Documentation][cite]
+
+Some Web frameworks such as Rails provide functionality for automatically determining how the URLs for an application should be mapped to the logic that deals with handling incoming requests.
+
+Conversely, Django stops short of automatically generating URLs, and requires you to explicitly manage your URL configuration.
+
+REST framework adds support for automatic URL routing, which provides you with a simple, quick and consistent way of wiring your view logic to a set of URLs.
+
+# API Guide
+
+Routers provide a convenient and simple shortcut for wiring up your application's URLs.
