I found the answer by reading the Laravel Docs "Custom HTTP Error Pages".

Create a "Errors" Folder under "/resources/views/" and create a file named "404.blade.php" then add this code:

@extends('../layouts.app')

@section('content')
    

        

            

                
{{ $exception->getMessage() }}
                back to home
            
        
    
@endsection

then add this route to your "web.php" file:

// 404 Route Handler
Route::any('{url_param}', function() {
    abort(404, '404 Error. Page not found!');
})->where('url_param', '.*');
