I think I didn't understand which exactly is the problem, you mentioned
three different things :D

- If your URLS are all like /catalog#/category/443435523daf321f123123sfaf1234
the only endpoint TG will see is /catalog so they should all be served by
index. So how can it be returning 404?
- Do you have an example that I can download to reproduce the problem?
- If you need to return static content anything you put into the "public"
directory of your app will be directly available, usually the only reason
to roll your own static serving is for pluggable/reusable components as
those are not inside the same app that user will run.

Regarding how to tell TG to "ignore requests" can you explain what you mean
by "ignoring"? If TG receives a request it's because the browser sent it to
the server, so at that point the server must return some kind of response.
What kind of response do you expect to return? As we are talking of a SPA I
suppose what you mean for ignoring is that it should be managed by angular
and not TG, which means that your browser shouldn't be sending any request
as Angular should have trapped it and never let it reach the server.

I'm not an angular guy but If you can try to provide an example that
showcases the actual situation and problem I'll gladly try help you :D
