How to implement CNC?

Question

PHP

Can you please tell me how to implement CNC on self-written CMS? The idea is that pages are always opened via index.php via a GET request, for example: index.php?action=pages&category=animals&article=123.
I want to implement the following scheme: Hide index.php from SEF System GET variables "hardcode", eg. pages, category And dynamic, such as the title of the article, to be written in the article itself and taken from there (with an understanding of the "where" the trouble comes from - I don't understand how .htaccess will take my "custom" link value from the article), the result: mysite.com/pages/ category/animals/my-custom-sef-article-name
Can't find an example. Help.
PS: I saw something similar in Joomla a long time ago
