When we have a Single Page Application, the routing is handled with the javascript framework router — meaning Laravel is not aware of the routes in the SPA. That’s not an issue by itself, but means when we want to link to our app deep links from our backend, we have to hardcode the links. An example — we want to send an email with a link to the user profile.

Our approach — we will add dummy routes in our web.php file, just so the router is aware they exist, but Laravel will never reach & serve them.

Just add the links you need to be linked in the backend as routes, no need to add all your SPA links.
