Reproducer: `nx serve portal-shell` (source-locale dev server, no
`--localize`), open the home page, click the locale switcher's
"Français" entry. The switcher rewrites the URL to `/fr/` and
hard-refreshes; the Angular CLI dev server applies its SPA fallback
and serves the same source `index.html` for every path. The source
bundle boots with `<base href="/">`, the router tries to match
`/fr/` and finds no route → `NG04002: Cannot match any routes.
URL Segment: 'fr'` in the bootstrap promise rejection.
Fix: add a `{ path: '**', redirectTo: '' }` catch-all so unknown
paths bounce to home gracefully. In production this is a no-op
because each locale ships with its own `<base href="/{locale}/">`
and the locale segment is stripped before route matching — `/fr/foo`
hits the bundle's `foo` route, not the wildcard. The route also
serves as a defensive 404-to-home for any future bad URL in prod.
The locale switcher's actual limitation in dev (no per-locale
bundle, switching can only land on the source locale) stands; this
just turns the ugly error into a silent bounce so the dev iteration
is not interrupted.
Documentation index
This is the entry point to all project documentation. It is maintained automatically: any addition, rename, or removal of a .md file under docs/ must be reflected here in the same change.
Conventions
- Documentation is written in English.
- One topic per file. Group related files into a folder when there are three or more.
- Cross-reference with relative links so they keep working in GitHub, IDEs, and exported sites.
- For architectural decisions, do not add them here — they belong in decisions/ as MADR 4.0.0 ADRs.
Sections
Daily development
- development.md — repo layout, prerequisites, initial setup, daily commands, observability dev-loop (Jaeger UI, log ↔ trace correlation), dependency updates (Renovate), conventional commit cycle. Day-to-day reference for working on the project.
Architecture
- architecture.md — cross-cutting Mermaid diagrams: C4 system context, C4 containers, Nx module boundaries, CI/CD pipeline. Single-decision diagrams (auth sequence, ERD, etc.) live inline in their ADR.
Onboarding & environment
Setup guides for new contributors:
- setup/01-wsl-terminal-setup.md — modern WSL terminal (Zsh + Powerlevel10k + CLI tools)
- setup/02-dev-web-stack.md — Node via nvm, pnpm via corepack, Docker
- setup/03-angular-nx-monorepo.md — Angular + Nx monorepo bootstrap
Operations & runbooks
Empty — to be populated when we deploy.
Security, performance, accessibility
Empty — placeholders to be filled with rationale docs alongside their corresponding ADRs.
