Hi James, Yes. The idea here is that you want individual components to be able to 'contribute' groups of routes. That way, you can avoid the common practice of having one big 'god' namespace containing all the Ring routes, which is then tightly coupled to all your Ring handlers. Instead, it's nice to have the flexibility to compose systems from different combinations of components.
One implementation approach is to have a 'router' component that delegates to its dependencies. That way, routes can be 'plugged in' using dependency declarations. Currently I only implemented this with bidi, which I'm slightly biased towards (because I wrote it). My 'router' implementation is here: https://github.com/juxt/modular/blob/master/modules/bidi/src/modular/bidi.clj But I have been meaning to add a Compojure equivalent, just haven't yet done so. Is this what you mean? If so, does Duct implement a similar pattern or does it do things differently? Also, I'm hoping that many of these pre-written components will be compatible with each other. For example, modular components are compatible with Daniel Szmulewicz's 'system' https://github.com/danielsz/system, and vice versa.
