The wildcard used (**) for routing an invalid page if specified at the beginning of the array gets matched for every route. This means we have to provide the wildcard entry only at the last of the array. Is there a better way to map invalid routes?

I like the way you explain, Hats of to your efforts. I am following you on each video, however, I found difficulties in reading as the font is too small in this video.

[
{path: '', redirectTo: '/home'},
{path: 'home', component:HomeComponent},
{path: 'settings', component:SettingsComponent}

How do I create an equivalent of a master page in angular? For example, when the user goes to the About us page, I would like to still show the navbar and the footer.
