How to set a default route ?

Use otherwise function of $routeProvider object to provide a default route.


JS
var app = angular.module("module1", ["ngRoute"]);
app.config( function ($routeProvider) {
   $routeProvider
     .when("/home", {
         templateUrl: "templates/home.html",
         controller: "homeController"
     })
     .when("/trainings", {
         templateUrl: "templates/trainings.html",
         controller: "trainingController"
     })
     .when("/students", {
         templateUrl: "templates/students.html",
         controller: "studentController"
     })
     .when("/contact", {
         template : '<h1>Contact Template loaded</h1>'
     })
     .otherwise( {
         redirectTo: '/home'
     }) });

• When /home is called, it will include home.html at <ng-view> place.
• When /XYZ is called, it goes to otherwise condition and redirect to route /home (Still includes home.html)
