You can forward all not found resources to your main page by providing custom ErrorViewResolver. All you need to do is to add this to your @Configuration class:

@Bean
ErrorViewResolver supportPathBasedLocationStrategyWithoutHashes() {
    return new ErrorViewResolver() {
        @Override
        public ModelAndView resolveErrorView(HttpServletRequest request, HttpStatus status, Map model) {
            return status == HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND
                    ? new ModelAndView("index.html", Collections.emptyMap(), HttpStatus.OK)
                    : null;
        }
    };
}
