    // This script checks to see if a redirect is present in the query string
    // and converts it back into the correct url and adds it to the
    // browser's history using window.history.replaceState(...),
    // which won't cause the browser to attempt to load the new url.
    // When the single page app is loaded further down in this file,
    // the correct url will be waiting in the browser's history for
    // the single page app to route accord
