Creating controller both for CRUD and API REST

The namespace in app\Controllers\api\Project.php is not correct.

PHP Code:

namespace App\Controllers; 


should be

PHP Code:

namespace App\Controllers\api; 


But the file path should be app\Controllers\Api\Project.php, and
the namespace also should be App\Controllers\Api,
if you follow the naming convention.
