The way to define your routes in laravel 8 is either
// Using PHP callable syntax...
use App\Http\Controllers\HomeController;
Route::get('/', [HomeController::class, 'index']);
OR
// Using string syntax...
Route::get('/', 'App\Http\Controllers\HomeController@index');
A resource route becomes
// Using PHP callable syntax...
use App\Http\Controllers\HomeController;
Route::resource('/', HomeController::class);
This means that in laravel 8, there is no automatic controller declaration prefixing by default.
If you want to stick to the old way, then you need to add a namespace property in the
app\Providers\RouteServiceProvider.php and activate in the routes method.
