# Dashboard as First Page

This section explains how to set the Dashboard page as the default starting page, skipping the landing page, for cases where it is not needed.

AuthGuard is removed from routes to avoid login checks

1. Update route at: **src/app/app-routing.module.ts**

{% code title="src/app/app-routing.module.ts" %}

```typescript
// angular import
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { RouterModule, Routes } from '@angular/router';

// project import
import { AdminLayout } from './theme/layout/admin-layout/admin-layout.component';
import { GuestLayouts } from './theme/layout/guest-layout/guest-layout.component';
// import { AuthGuardChild } from './theme/shared/components/_helpers/auth.guard';
import { SimpleLayouts } from './theme/layout/simple-layout/simple-layout.component';

//type
import { Role } from './theme/shared/components/_helpers/role';


const routes: Routes = [
{
    path: '',
    component: AdminComponent,
    // canActivateChild: [AuthGuardChild],
    children: [
      {
        path: '',
        redirectTo: '/dashboard/default',
        pathMatch: 'full'

      {
        path: '',
        loadComponent: () => import('./demo/dashboard/default/default.component').then((c) => c.DefaultComponent),
