Configure Spring Boot for SPA frontend

by

For routing, according to this guide at Using "Natural" Routes (specifically here), you have to add a controller that does the following:

@Controller
public class RouteController {
    @RequestMapping(value = "/{path:[^\\.]*}")
    public String redirect() {
        return "forward:/";
    }
}

Then using Spring Boot, the index.html loads at /, and resources can be loaded; routes are handled by Angular.
