A sample Next.js app showing dynamic routing with modals as a route.
A minimal Next.js demo showing the parallel routes + intercepting routes pattern — the same photo URL renders as a modal when you click from the gallery, but as a standalone page on direct load or refresh. It exists purely as a reference implementation of this specific routing trick. Not a starter template, not a production app.
The parallel routes setup (@modal slot with (.)photos interceptor) is a clean, working example of a pattern that's poorly documented elsewhere. The directory structure itself teaches the concept — you can see exactly how the files map to behavior without reading a word. It's small enough to fully read in 10 minutes.
There's essentially no logic here beyond the routing — no data fetching strategy, no loading/error states, no real component architecture to learn from. The README is three sentences and a deploy button. Stars are inflated by people bookmarking it as a reference rather than actual adoption. If you need this pattern with real constraints (auth, streaming, suspense boundaries), you'll be on your own immediately after copying the file structure.
