 Now, when you visit [`localhost:8000/hello/John/Smith/`](http://localhost:8000/hello/John), you should see `Hello, John Smith!` displayed on the page!
 
+cot also has wildcards to match all sub path in a segment:
+
+```rust
+async fn wildcard_path(Path(path): Path<(String, String)>) -> cot::Result<Html> {

+        Route::with_handler_and_name("/wildcard/*path", wildcard_path, "wildcard_path"),
+    ])
+}
+```
+
+In this case, it matches `/wildcard/`, `/wildcard/foo`, `/wildcard/foo/bar` and so on.
