@Bean
ErrorViewResolver redirectToFrontEndOn404() {
	return ( request, status, model ) -> status == HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND
		? new ModelAndView("forward:/index.html", Collections.<String, Object>emptyMap(), HttpStatus.OK)
			: null;
}


This is necessary on page refresh to avoid showing 404 or error pages
This forward also maintains the client route path, so angular will route to the correct route on reload.
