+
+    This decorator allows you to lazily load Forms. When using ``@routing.route`` all Forms that are routes must be imported before the app starts.
+    This is fine for most small applications, but as your application grows you may find that executing all the code for all the Forms is slow.
+    The ``lazy_route`` decorator should decorate a function that imports the Form and returns it.

 .. function:: routing.redirect(path, priority=0, condition=None)
 
     The redirect decorator can decorate a function that will intercept the current navigtation, depending on its ``path``, ``priority`` and ``condition`` arguments.
