I am currently using app router and am trying to make dynamic routes based off of a list of files. How can I make it so if none of the urls (which would be the same as the file name) match any files, it would be a 404 page not found?

@Masai Lion the 404 page is shown by default if someone navigates to a route that does not exist

im using a dynamic page though so technically every route would exist for the page directory

@Masai Lion you would have to check if it exists, ideally by calling an API route, and if it doesn't, push the error page to the router
