Angular · Junior · Question 58 of 75

How do you show a "Page not found" component for unknown URLs?

{ path: '**', component: NotFound }

✓Correct answer: Add a wildcard route ** at the end of the routes array
2Put notFound: true on the first route
3Angular shows a 404 page automatically

Explanation

The router uses the first matching route, so the wildcard must be last, otherwise it would catch every URL.
