UI-Router provides state based routing. Each feature of an application is defined as a state. One state is active at any time, and UI-Router manages the transitions between the states. Each state describes the URL, the UI (a view or views), data prerequisites, and other logical prerequisites (such as authentication) for a feature. Before activating a state, UI-Router first fetches any prerequisites (asynchronously), and then activates the view(s) and updates the URL. UI-Router states are hierarchical; states can be nested inside other states, forming a tree. Child states may inherit data and behavior (such as authentication) from their parent states. A client-side router updates the browser URL as the user nagivates through the single page app. Conversely, changes to the browser’s URL can drive navigation of the app, enabling a user to create deep-links (i.e., bookmarks) to areas deep within the application.

Navigo is a small dependency-free JavaScript router for client-side web applications. It maps URL routes to JavaScript functions, making it useful for single-page applications and lightweight frontend projects. The router is based on the History API, so it can update the page URL without a full reload. It also supports hash-based routing for projects that need simpler deployment or legacy compatibility. Navigo includes parameterized routes, navigation helpers, lifecycle hooks, not-found handling, default handlers, and easy integration with links through a data attribute. It is a strong fit for developers who want routing behavior without adopting a large frontend framework.
