Deep Linking - what and why?

[Marie]

Hey,

I was wondering if somebody could explain Deep Linking in more detail than what's provided on the angular webpage?

What is it really and benefit does it give? Why and when would I use it in my applications?

Thanks in advance :)

not to be confused with hot linking (leeching)

There is one killer part of it: you copy a link from the browser's
address bar, send it to someone else, the other person clicks on the
links and see the application in the same state as you when sending a
link. Well, at least this is the theory as it is often not practical
to encode the whole state of the app in a link.

Cheers,
Pawel
