+# Overview
+
+This demo shows how a `404.sql` file can serve as a fallback error handler. Whenever a `404 Not
+Found` error would be emitted, instead a dedicated `404.sql` is called (if it exists) to serve the
+request. This is usefull in two scenarios:
+
+1. Providing custom 404 error pages.
+2. To provide content under dynamic paths.
+
+The former use-case is primarily of cosmetic nature, it allows for more informative, customized
+failure modes, enabling better UX. The latter use-case opens the door especially for REST API
+design, where dynamic paths are often used to convey arguments, i.e. `/api/resource/5` where `5` is
+the id of a resource.
+
+
+# Fallback Handler Selection
+
+When a normal request to either a `.sql` or a static file fails with `404`, the `404` error is
+intercepted. The reuquest path''s target directory is scanned for a `404.sql`. If it exists, it is
+called. Otherwise, the parent directory is scanned for `404.sql`, which will be called if it exists.
+This search traverses up until it reaches the `web_root`. If even the webroot does not contain a
+`404.sql`, then the original `404` error is served as response to the HTTP client.
+
+The fallback handler is not recursive; i.e. if anything causes another `404` during the call to a
+`404.sql`, then the request fails (emitting a `404` response to the HTTP client).
