+# Dynamic RoutingConfig
+The [RoutingConfig][] provides a way to update the GoRoute\[s\] after 
+the [GoRouter][] has already created. This can be done by creating a GoRouter
+with special constructor [GoRouter.routingConfig][]
+
+```dart
+final ValueNotifier<RoutingConfig> myRoutingConfig = ValueNotifier<RoutingConfig>(
+  RoutingConfig(
+    routes: <RouteBase>[GoRoute(path: '/', builder: (_, __) => HomeScreen())],
+  ),
+);
+final GoRouter router = GoRouter.routingConfig(routingConfig: myRoutingConfig);
+```
+
+To change the GoRoute later, modify the value of the [ValueNotifier][] directly.
+
+```dart
+myRoutingConfig.value = RoutingConfig(
+  routes: <RouteBase>[
+    GoRoute(path: '/', builder: (_, __) => AlternativeHomeScreen()),
+    GoRoute(path: '/a-new-route', builder: (_, __) => SomeScreen()),
+  ],
+);
+```
+
+The value change is automatically picked up by GoRouter and causes it to reparse
+the current routes, i.e. RouteMatchList, stored in GoRouter. The RouteMatchList will
+reflect the latest change of the `RoutingConfig`.
