 -   `*` - Matches one or more URL segments
     -   `/profile/*` will match `/profile/123`, `/profile/123/abc`, etc.
 
 These can then be composed to create more complex routes:
 
 -   `/profile/:id/*` will match `/profile/123/abc`, `/profile/123/abc/def`, etc.
 
+The difference between `/:id*` and `/:id/*` is that in the former, the `id` param will include the entire path after it, while in the latter, the `id` is just the single path segment.
