Angular 2 Hosted on IIS: HTTP Error 404

We have to make IIS fall back to index.html by adding a rewrite rule.

Step 1:
Install IIS URL Rewrite Module

Step 2:
Add a rewrite rule to web.config

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <configuration>
      <system.webServer>
        <rewrite>
          <rules>
            <rule name="AngularJS Routes" stopProcessing="true">
              <match url=".*" />
              <conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll">
                <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true" />
                <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" negate="true" />   
              </conditions>
              <action type="Rewrite" url="https://stackoverflow.com/" />
            </rule>
          </rules>
        </rewrite>
      </system.webServer>
    </configuration>
