page not found when going directly to a route when deployed on netlify
Hello everyone!
I'm having some issues, when I navigate through the app normally I can reach any route. Like clicking a <Link> that redirects to /app
However when i try to go directly to let's say https://example.com/app I get Page Not Found.
This doesnt happen locally on development.
Anyone what may be happening?

Can we get a link to the repo?

This looks like a netlify thing.
In the project, in the
netlify.toml you can add the following
Basically since its a SPA (single page application), you need to tell Netlify to silently redirect all traffic to your index.html
From there on, the router takes over.conscious-sapphireOP•3y ago

should this be added to documentation @Tanner Linsley i can add if you want

Woo! Just put it where you see fit for now
I'll organize it when I start writing the rest of the docs

Since this trick is cloud vendor specific (i.e. Netlify), maybe include a link to their docs. https://docs.netlify.com/configure-builds/file-based-configuration/#redirects
File-based configuration
Use a netlify.toml configuration file to specify how the platform builds and deploys your project.
