react-router-dom v6 Routes showing blank page

Im routing a page to the root, but its showing up as a blank page, no matter what js file I use. Not sure whats wrong, havent used react since last year but looks like they've updated react-router-dom so it doesnt use Switch anymore. Anyone know the correct syntax so the page shows up? Here are the files:
WebRoutes.js
import React from "react";
import { Routes, Route } from 'react-router-dom';
import { useNavigate } from "react-router-dom";
// Webpages
import App from './App';
import Welcome from './welcome';
import SignUp from './Signup'
export default function WebRoutes() {
return (
<Routes>
<Route path='/'>
<Welcome />
</Route>
</Routes>
);
}
index.js
import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import './index.css';
import WebRoutes from './WebRoutes';
import reportWebVitals from './reportWebVitals';
ReactDOM.render(
<React.StrictMode>
<WebRoutes />
</React.StrictMode>,
document.getElementById('root')
);

In react-router-dom#6 the Route components don't render routed content as children, they use the element prop. Other Route components are the only valid children of a Route in the case of building nested routes.
export default function WebRoutes() {
return (
<Routes>
<Route path='/' element={<Welcome />} />
</Routes>
);
}
Ensure that you have rendered a router around your app.
import { BrowserRouter as Router } from 'react-router-dom';
ReactDOM.render(
<React.StrictMode>
<Router>
<WebRoutes />
</Router>
</React.StrictMode>,
document.getElementById('root')
);

Adding Pages Router Error - Property 'pathname' undefined

I've tried browsing a few similar queries but haven't been able to solve my issue. I downloaded a template (am new to React) where the single-page application was entirely built in App.js. I've since been trying to add functionality to add additional pages - but keep getting the error "React Router: Cannot read property 'pathname' of undefined."
My App.js
import React from 'react'
import { BrowserRouter as Router, Route, Routes } from 'react-router-dom'
import Mint from './components/pages/Mint'
import LandingPage from './components/pages/LandingPage'
const App = () => {
return (
<Router>
<Routes>
<Route exact path="/" element={<Mint/>}/>
<Route path="/home" element={<LandingPage/>}/>
</Routes>
</Router>
);
}
export default App;
My index.js
import React from "react";
import ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import App from "./App";
import reportWebVitals from "./reportWebVitals";
import store from "./redux/store";
import { Provider } from "react-redux";
import { BrowserRouter } from "react-router-dom";
import { ConnectedRouter } from 'react-router-redux';
import "./styles/reset.css";
ReactDOM.render(
<Provider store={store}>
<App />
</Provider>,
document.getElementById("root")
);
reportWebVitals();
Can confirm upon loading that the "Mint" page loads properly. But if I try and switch the exact path to LandingPage in App.js it'll give that error.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

React Router won't load pages without first loading the home page

I am using React Router to navigate to different pages, each one being a different React Component. If I go to the home page first (e.g. /) then click a Link to take me to a different component (e.g. /new-guide), it renders fine. However, when I push the project to production using AWS or Netlify, accessing any component fails without first going to the home component.
Here's what it looks like in action. If you visit https://www.kelv.me/ then click the 'Gap Year' guide, the gap year component renders correctly. However, if you close the tab and try to visit https://www.kelv.me/gap-year directly, a 'Page not found' error occurs.
Here's my App.js:
import { BrowserRouter as Router, Route, Switch } from 'react-router-dom';
import GapYear from './components/GapYear';
function App() {
return (
<Fragment>
<Router>
<Fragment>
<div id='content'>
<Switch>
<Route exact path='/' component={Landing} />
<Route exact path='/gap-year' component={GapYear} />
</Switch>
</div>
</Fragment>
</Router>
</Fragment>
);
}
export default App;
And here's my index.js:
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import App from './App';
import { BrowserRouter as Router } from 'react-router-dom';
ReactDOM.render(
<Router>
<App />
</Router>,
document.getElementById('root')
);

React router dom full page reload

I have just created a fresh react project with create-react-app . for navigation i am using react-router-dom in my index.js file i have wraped App.js components with and in App.js i am using switch component to load pages based on changes in URL . its working fine , the problem is that it loads whole page when i change url from /auth to / which is not desired behaviour
Following is my index.js file
import React from "react";
import ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import "./index.css";
import App from "./App";
import * as serviceWorker from "./serviceWorker";
import { BrowserRouter } from "react-router-dom";
ReactDOM.render(
<React.StrictMode>
<BrowserRouter forceRefresh={false}>
<App />
</BrowserRouter>
</React.StrictMode>,
document.getElementById("root")
);
// If you want your app to work offline and load faster, you can change
// unregister() to register() below. Note this comes with some pitfalls.
// Learn more about service workers:
serviceWorker.unregister();
Following is my App.js file
import React from "react";
import logo from "./logo.svg";
import "./App.css";
import { BrowserRouter, Route, Link, Switch } from "react-router-dom";
import HomePage from "./pages/home";
import AuthPage from "./pages/auth";
function App() {
return (
<div className="App">
<Switch>
<Route path="/auth" render={(props) => <AuthPage {...props} />} />
<Route path="/" exact render={(props) => <HomePage {...props} />} />
</Switch>
</div>
);
}
export default App;
desired behaviour is that when i change url in the browser from keyboard it should not reload whole page . it should just reload the App div in App.js

Navigating from App.js to Places.js

I am a newbie to React.I am playing around with it quite a bit.Now I want to navigate from App.js to Places.js .I agree that it can be done using React-router but I could not yet figure that out successfully. I need help in this regard.Having said this I tried few combinations using HashRouter, Route and Navlink but all efforts were in vain.
Here is my App.js
import {Link,Router} from 'react-router-dom';
import Places from './Places';
import React, { Component } from "react";
import { Card} from 'semantic-ui-react';
class App extends Component {
render() {
return (
<Router>
<div className ="ui four stackable two column grid">
<div className="column">
<Card
as = {Link} to = '/Places'
header='Places'
description='Click here to get list of places.'
/>
</div>
...
</div>
</Router>
);
}
}
And here is my Places.js
import { Card} from 'semantic-ui-react';
import axios from 'axios';
export default class Places extends React.Component {
...
Basically I have App.js with 4 UI cards.When I click each one of them it should load the contents of the corresponding js files.Will this qualify as SPA?

To define your routes. You have to import first react-router.
In your file app.js, you have to cut the content in another file (grid.js for example). 'App' will be the main container of your application
Then you will create a file routes.js and describe your routes:
import React from 'react';
import { Route, IndexRoute } from 'react-router';
import App from './components/app';
import Grid from './components/Grid';
import Places from './components/Places';
export default (
<Route path="/" component={App}>
<IndexRoute component={Grid} />
<Route path="places" component={Places} />
</Route>
);
Here, with IndexRoute, you say that your default route will load 'Grid' so the list of cards.
Then, in app.js file, you write in your render function {this.props.children} where you want to display your elements 'Grid' and 'Places'.
Finally, in your file 'index.js', you will import your routes, and the router:
import { Router, browserHistory } from 'react-router';
import routes from './routes';
And, in the function ReactDOM.render, define your routes:
ReactDOM.render(
<Router history={browserHistory} routes={routes} />
, document.querySelector('.container'));

You can handle routing by keeping your routes in separate file and handle component rendering from there.
import React from 'react';
import { Router, Route, IndexRoute, browserHistory } from 'react-router';
import {render} from 'react-dom';
import Places from '../Places.js';
render(
<Router history={browserHistory}>
<Route path='/' component={App}>
<Route path='/Places' component={Places}></Route>
</Route>
</Router>, document.getElementById('app')
);
When you'll navigate to '/Places' route, it will render Places component.
