Have you got a controller called WelcomeController?  If not then what
is the name of the controller with method index?

You understand that there's a controller I'm trying to reference but that's about it.

I don't think you've understood my question, or the wording of my question, or know what the WelcomeController is.

I don't mean to sound patronizing and I know you're trying to help, but you don't understand.  I'm going to break this down as much as I can.

I said in the first sentence  "Is it possible to reference  welcome#index, in the routes file?"

That means there's a thing called the WelcomeController  ,  I didn't create it, otherwise I wouldn't have said it like that.   And ti's not just a controller that happens to be called that, otherwise again, I wouldn't have phrased my question as I did.

You don't seem to be aware of what WelcomeController is.

I even said

"welcome page (That 'yay' page rails shows)."

Do you know what I'm referring to now?

If not,


Try creating a blank rails program..

do  the commands

$ rails new blah
$ cd blah
$ rails s


Now read what it says in the console

It says WelcomeController

I didn't make that

You'll have it on your computer too.

Is my question clear to you now?

Also you were trying to tell me that the routes file has a root in there explicitly by default.  No it does not.   All you have to do is create a blank rails program and look at the routes file and you'll see it does not.   So I don't understand why you say that?!

Rails.application.routes.draw do

  # For details on the DSL available within this file, see http://guides.rubyonrails.org/routing.html

end
