The sample demo of the angular ui router has this link for the start page:
full url of \'ui-router\' is /
or http://angular-ui.github.io/ui-route
You can do it this way:
angular.module('MyApp', ['ui.router']).config([
'$stateProvider', function ($stateProvider) {
$stateProvider.state('default', {
controller: 'MyController',
templateUrl: 'path/to/index.html',
url:''
})
)];
That way whenever the url is on the root of your site ui-router will capture it on a state that matches, in this case, 'default'.
