When server.js receives a static path it does not recognize, it serves up
index.html instead. This is useful when a user reloads a page in the SPA -- server.js does not know this path, but by serving up the SPA again the SPA knows how to handle that URL. This makes the app behave in a manner a user expects when reloading a page.
