As APIs grow, changes are inevitable. Versioning keeps existing clients working. ## Versioned routes ```php Route::prefix('v1')->group(function () { Route::get('/posts', [V1PostController::class, 'index']); }); Route::prefix('v2')->group(function () { Route::get('/posts', [V2PostController::class, 'index']); }); ``` API versioning enables controlled evolution. In the next tutorial, we will design a production deployment strategy.
