Using Underscore Naming for PHP Controllers When Using PascalCase Class Names

When a PHP controller file is named using PascalCase (big camel case), the framework requires the corresponding directory name to be written in lowercase with underscores for proper template access.

Step 1: Define a class file using PascalCase naming.

Step 2: Accessing the URL with the PascalCase name directly results in an error because the framework cannot locate the template.

Step 3: The problem is resolved by accessing the controller using the lowercase‑underscore format, which allows the template file to be found and rendered correctly.
