direct Access to pages resulting in 404 error
i'm encountering a situation where accessing pages directly via their URLs leads to a 404 error, but navigating to them after loading the main website doesn't produce any errors. could someone help me troubleshoot this issue? it seems to be related to routing. thank you!

create a
vercel.json file in the project root and insert thatyup now i am able to access any page with url also without first going to the main route
thank you so much
what was the reason i wasnt able to access pages with url ?
can you please explain it to me
you're running an SPA, which only servers one single page (the root page,
index.html). And solid-router resolves the url and renders the matching component, but this all happens on the same page. So even if a user navigates to /otherpage, you need to serve the index.html and solid-router than matches the /otherpage and renders the matching component.thank you so much for explaining , i almost understood why this issue but little bit confused this was new to know , will learn more as i work more with these. thank you for helping me resolve this issue .
you're welcome! Yeah, watch some youtube videos regarding SPA's. Might clear up some open questions :)
