Hi Ashley,
Thanks for the reply.
The
@extend(layouts.app)
got me, .. didn't really catch that the layouts.app was layouts/app.blade.php....
I've got an additional question if I may.
Say I have a basic bootstrap/template, and I'm looking to create a test site, with mods.
Am I correct in assuming I can "break" the template up into pieces (blades), make mods as needed, and more or less recombine the pieces
with routes/views/extend/yield/etc as needed..
thanks

The route() helper method is used to generate a URL to a named route. In
your case, it's looking for a route called "properties". Do you have
that defined in your routes/web.php file?
More information on creating named routes can be found in the Laravel
documentation: https://laravel.com/docs/11.x/routing#named-routes
