So you can attach at the end of the path of your father component a "/*", so react router will know that this route will only show if it starts with that path name and not the exact path name like this

<Routes>
  <Route path="/welcome/*" component={<Father />} />
</Routes>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

And then have other paths starting with the same path name but with some additional name at the end, so inside the father component you have it's child component and there you can put the nested route for that specific path name to render the child component like this

<Routes>
  <Route path="new-user" component={<Child />} />
</Routes>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

So you don't have to put all the routes in to the same file, and if they're nested routes you can just add the "/*" at the end of that path name and create a route inside the child component, so it loads when it match's the URL.
