Angular - Routing

Consider this routes array:

const routes = [
  { path: 'profile', component: ProfileComponent },
  { path: 'settings', component: SettingsComponent }
];

What happens if the URL path is '/dashboard'?

ANo component loads, navigation fails

BSettingsComponent loads

CProfileComponent loads

DApp redirects to 'profile' automatically

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Check if '/dashboard' matches any route
Neither 'profile' nor 'settings' matches 'dashboard'.
Step 2: Understand Angular routing fallback
Without a wildcard or redirect route, navigation to unknown path fails with no component.
Final Answer:
No component loads, navigation fails -> Option A
Quick Check:
Unknown path without fallback = navigation fails [OK]

Quick Trick: Unknown paths need wildcard or redirect to avoid failure [OK]
