+## Basename (Sub-Path Deployment)
+
+When your app is served under a sub-path (e.g. `/admin` or `/v2`), set `basename`:
+
+```typescript
+const router = createRouter({
+  basename: "/admin",
+  document: Document,
+}).routes(({ path, include }) => [
+  path("/", Dashboard, { name: "home" }), // matches /admin
+  path("/users", Users, { name: "users" }), // matches /admin/users
+  include("/api", apiPatterns, { name: "api" }), // matches /admin/api/*
+]);
+
+router.reverse("home"); // "/admin"
+router.reverse("users"); // "/admin/users"
+```
+
+Router-owned APIs are basename-aware:
+
+- `reverse()` returns prefixed paths
+- `<Link to="/users">` renders `<a href="/admin/users">`
+- `redirect("/login")` redirects to `"/admin/login"`
+- `router.use("/users/*", mw)` matches `/admin/users/*`
+- `useRouter().push("/users")` navigates to `/admin/users`
+- Route names stay unprefixed (`"home"`, not `"admin.home"`)
+
+Note: `href()` is a raw path helper and does **not** auto-prefix with basename.
+Use `reverse()` or `<Link>` for basename-aware URLs.
+
 ## Using the Request Handler
 
 The router provides a `fetch` method to handle RSC requests:
@@ -290,6 +325,56 @@ const router = createRouter({
 export default router;
 ```
 
+## Not Found Handling
+
+Two distinct 404 scenarios:
+
+**1. No route matches the URL** — the router renders the `notFound` component from `createRouter()` config. This is automatic.
+
+**2. A handler/loader calls `notFound()`** — signals that the route matched but the data doesn't exist (e.g., invalid product ID).
+
+```typescript
+import { notFound } from "@rangojs/router";
+
+// In a handler or loader
+path("/product/:slug", async (ctx) => {
+  const product = await db.getProduct(ctx.params.slug);
+  if (!product) notFound("Product not found");
+  return <ProductPage product={product} />;
+});
+```
+
+### Fallback chain for `notFound()`
+
+When `notFound()` is thrown, the router looks for a fallback in this order:
+
+1. **`notFoundBoundary()`** — nearest boundary in the route tree (route-level)
+2. **`defaultNotFoundBoundary`** — from `createRouter()` config (app-level)
+3. **`notFound`** — from `createRouter()` config (same component used for no-route-match)
+4. **Default `<h1>Not Found</h1>`** — built-in fallback
+
+All cases set HTTP 404 status.
+
+### notFoundBoundary
+
+Wrap routes with `notFoundBoundary()` for route-specific not-found UI:
+
+```typescript
+urls(({ path, layout }) => [
+  layout(ShopLayout, () => [
+    notFoundBoundary(({ notFound: info }) => (
+      <div>
+        <h1>Not Found</h1>
+        <p>{info.message}</p>
+      </div>
+    )),
+    path("/product/:slug", ProductPage),
+  ]),
+]);
+```
+
+`notFoundBoundary` receives `{ notFound: NotFoundInfo }` where `NotFoundInfo` contains `message`, `segmentId`, `segmentType`, and `pathname`.
