tl;dr your best bet is to use a store like redux or mobx when managing state that needs to be accessible throughout your application. Those libraries allow your components to connect to/observe the state and be kept up to date of any state changes. What is a <Route>? The reason that you cannot pass props … Read more
The document.location data in browsers is generally inaccessible to scripts, because allowing access would give any given site access to your entire browsing history. At most you can do a few simple manipulations, like “go to history entry #37” or “go back one page”. But you can’t do “what was the address of the page … Read more
Can you try using document.location.replace() it is used to clear the last entry in the history and replace it with the address of a new url. replace() removes the URL of the current document from the document history, meaning that it is not possible to use the “back” button to navigate back to the original … Read more
Not really an answer but I can tell you what I did. I first clone the browser repo and try to reproduce how they get the history.

Because history is a host object, you should be careful with … Read more
You can and should not disable the browser back button or history. That’s bad for user experience. There are JavaScript hacks, but they are not reliable and will also not work when the client has JS disabled. Your concrete problem is that the requested page is been loaded from the browser cache instead of straight … Read more
My apologies if I’m misunderstanding, but you cannot clear a client’s browsing history from server-side code. The browser history (bugs aside) is normally protected very heavily.
