github.com

magento/magento2/blob/2.1.6/lib/internal/Magento/Framework/App/FrontController.php#L46-L48


while (!$request->isDispatched() && $routingCycleCounter++ < 100) {
    /** @var \Magento\Framework\App\RouterInterface $router */
    foreach ($this->_routerList as $router) {

Details

How is the base router (Magento\Framework\App\Router\Base) implemented?

How is the default router (Magento\Framework\App\Router\DefaultRouter) implemented?

How is the CMS frontend router (Magento\Cms\Controller\Router) implemented?

How is a frontend page's absense (404 Not found, no route, «Whoops, our bad») handled?
