the Polymer Starter Kit (PSK) contains instructions on using Pretty URLs when hosting on Firebase HERE
I am attempting to do similar using Nginx Server, but cannot figure out the Location Block for page reloads. Using the sample data that comes with PSK, how would you configure "/users/sam", for example.
nginx config
Make sure to add a base url to your index.html. In case of Polymer starter kit & nginx the base element will help direct access to URLs with query parameters such as : http://example.com/users/Chuck that you can find under "Users" in PSK 1.2.x
Otherwise nginx will go into a loop without a base URL.
nginx error.log
Browser goes into an infinite cycle loading the index page instead of static files.
