`LayoutBuilder` is not functioning as intended.

[OoLunar]

When passing a LayoutBuilder I'm expecting to be served the page. Instead I am receiving 404's and am unable to serve any content.

Example

LayoutBuilder textFiles = Layout.Create()
    .Add("/readme", ModMarkdown.Page(Resource.FromAssembly(typeof(Program).Assembly, "Readme.md")))
    .Add("/license", ModMarkdown.Page(Resource.FromAssembly(typeof(Program).Assembly, "License")))
    .Add("/privacy", ModMarkdown.Page(Resource.FromAssembly(typeof(Program).Assembly, "PrivacyPolicy.md")))
    .Add("/terms", ModMarkdown.Page(Resource.FromAssembly(typeof(Program).Assembly, "TermsOfService.md")))
    .Add("/favicon.ico", Download.From(Resource.FromAssembly(typeof(Program).Assembly, "res.icon.ico")));

Host.Create()
    .Handler(textFiles)
    .Bind(IPAddress.Parse(configuration.GetValue("Server:Address", "127.0.0.1")!), configuration.GetValue<ushort>("Server:Port", 8080))
    .Run();

The issue is due to the leading slashes (/). If you change to .Add("readme" ...) the pages are served.

Besides that, it seems that you would like to serve a website, so I would take this approach instead:

var textFiles = Layout.Create()
                      .Add("readme", ModMarkdown.Page(Resource.FromAssembly(typeof(Program).Assembly, "Readme.md")).Title("Readme"));

var website = Website.Create()
                     .Theme(Theme.Create())
                     .Content(textFiles);
                     //.Favicon(Resource.FromAssembly(...))

Host.Create()
    .Handler(website)
    .Bind(IPAddress.Parse("127.0.0.1"), 8080)
    .Run();

With the NoTheme package, if the pages should be served without a menu. Otherwise you can try something like AdminLTE,

Thank you for your response and I apologize for the delay.

As you had mentioned, the issue was indeed the leading slash. I hadn't seen this documented anywhere and I expected the leading slash to be treated as the root of the website, not as a segment.

With the NoTheme package, if the pages should be served without a menu. Otherwise you can try something like AdminLTE,

While I appreciate the offer, the latest Nuget packages don't seem to work as intended with the latest commit of this project. Instead, it throws upon registering due to a lack of implementation on the Build method, I think? Regardless, that's out of scope for this issue.

Thank you again, I appreciate your assistance.

This was my final result:
