how is the homepage loaded

[liuyangjason]

when accessing 'http://localhost:3000', it shows the homepage. But I do not find 'page.tsx' in 'app' folder. How is the homepage loaded?

Checkout the (lobby)

[liuyangjason]

the homepage shows the lobby. the lobby is part of the homepage. But my question was asking how the homepage was loaded because I do not find 'page.tsx' in 'app' folder.

My answer is still as I mentioned, since NextJS App router lets you create wherever you want to be your index. In this case, page.tsx is lining under (lobby) which acts as a group but just a group of how you will structure your project. You can re-check your understanding at the official docs.

Ex.
(lobby)/page.tsx = /
(lobby)/(lobby...100)/page.tsx = /

thanks. after checking the 'route-groups' chapter at the official docs, i got it.
