 Note that **[Navigation Guards](../advanced/navigation-guards.md) are not applied on the route that redirects, only on its target**. e.g. In the example below, adding a `beforeEnter` guard to the `/home` route would not have any effect.
 
+When writing a `redirect`, you can omit the `component` option because it is never directly reached so there is no component to render. The only exception are [nested routes](./nested-routes.md): if a route record has `children` and a `redirect` property, it should also have a `component` property.

 Most applications will use static routes like `/about` and dynamic routes like `/users/:userId` like we just saw in [Dynamic Route Matching](./dynamic-matching.md), but Vue Router has much more to offer!

+For the sake of simplicity, all, route records **are omitting the `component` property** to focus on the `path` value.

 ## Custom Regexp in params
 
 When defining a param like `:userId`, we internally use the following regexp `([^/]+)` (at least one character that isn't a slash `/`) to extract params from URLs. This works well unless you need to differentiate two routes based on the param content. Imagine two routes `/:orderId` and `/:productName`, both would match the exact same URLs, so we need a way to differentiate them. The easiest way would be to add a static section to the path that differentiates them:
