Data disappear after refreshing the page when using browserHistory locally

Question

I had this issue where I was testing the react-router browserHistory on a webpack-dev-server and when I refresh any of the routes I get something like this Cannot GET /pageurl

In the production case it's a server configuration case as mentioned here , but it's a test and I'm using a development server!

Answer 1

So the solution was so simple! as mentioned in this article all I have to do is to add the following to webpack.config.js file

devServer: {
    port: 8080,
    historyApiFallback: true
}

and BAM it works!, alright I just wanted so share this because it wasn't easy to find the solution. bbye.
