By default, AngularJS will route URLs with a hashtag. It is very easy to get clean URLs and remove the hashtag from the URL using $locationProvider in AngularJS. You need to inject $locationProvider into your config section of module and use the HTML5 History API like this. e.g.

app.config(function ($stateProvider, $urlRouterProvider, $locationProvider) {
    $stateProvider
        .state('home', {
            url: '/home',
            templateUrl: 'partial-home.html'
        })
        .state('about', {
            url: '/aboutus',
            templateUrl: 'aboutus.html'   
        });
    $locationProvider.html5Mode(true);
});

Also don't forget to put a <base href="/"> tag inside index.html section.

Now you need to rewrite your url .Let me know which server-side technology you are using with angularJS

Sam Over a year ago

i am on local server using bracket.io. and here is the git repo github.com/vipul-verma/naysa

Using this $locationProvider.html5Mode(true) requires URL rewriting on server side, basically you have to rewrite all your links to entry point of your application (e.g. index.html).

In order for html5 mode to work you must define a baseurl like:

<base href="whatever/" />

See w3schools for more information: http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_base.asp
