index sibling module considered parallel route, not nested

[akomm]

Example routes:

• items/index.tsx
• items/create.tsx

I need to create items/index.tsx as items.tsx for the create.tsx to be considered as child route.

I know you can place route modules as siblings for not sharing layout, but I wonder if this behavior for index is intentional.

If want to have a route nested inside another you need this setup

routes/parent/child.tsx
routes/parent.tsx

The parent is a created as usual and the nested is inside a folder of the same name of the parent.

Creating and index.tsx inside the folder will match at the /parent url, and the rest will match at /parent/child.

@sergiodxa Thanks. I just wrote myself what you explain to me, I asked whether this behavior is also intentional for index.
