<ul><li>Using the CLI <code>strapi generate:controller user</code>. Read the <a href="/documentation/3.x.x/cli/CLI.html#strapi-generatecontroller">CLI documentation</a> for more information.</li> <li>Manually create a JavaScript file named <code>User.js</code> in <code>./api/**/controllers</code> which contains at least one <a href="#adding-endpoints">endpoint</a>.</li></ul> <h2 id="adding-endpoints"><a href="#adding-endpoints" aria-hidden="true" class="header-anchor">#</a> Adding Endpoints</h2> <p>Each controllers action must be an <code>async</code> function and receives the <code>context</code> (<code>ctx</code>) object as first parameter containing the <a href="/documentation/3.x.x/guides/requests.html">request context</a> and the <a href="/documentation/3.x.x/guides/responses.html">response context</a>.

It means that every time a web browser is pointed to the <code>/hello</code> URL, the server will called the <code>index</code> action in the <code>Hello.js</code> controller. Our <code>index</code> action will return <code>Hello World!</code>.
