What is wrong with my AngularJS routes?

Issue

I’ve created an AngularJS sandbox, so to speak. I used the template html provided by Bootstrap for setup speed purposes, and I plan on using Bootstrap to fancy it up the fast way. While setting everything up, I noticed that my routes aren’t working properly. In my index.html file, I’ve tried placing my angular file in several places, but I don’t believe that’s the issue. I’ve also tried using <ng-view></ng-view>, instead of using a div. In app.js, I’ve tried renaming the route to the templateUrl from the root directory to the end file, app/home/home.html, along with many other configurations. When I load in my browser, all I get is my navigation menu. I don’t even get the html from the templateUrl. I may be wrong about all of this, but I can’t figure it out. I’ve placed a generic Bootstrap navigation in my index.html file for my initial set up. What could be my issue?

app.js

var app = angular.module('myApp', ['ngRoute']);

app.config(function($routeProvider){
  $routeProvider
    .when("/home", {
      templateURL: "home.html",
      controller: "HomeController"
    })
    .when("/about", {

HomeController.js

var app = angular.module('myApp');

app.controller('HomeController', function($scope){

  $scope.noun = {
    person: "Maximus Aurelius",
    place: "World",
    thing: "sword"
  };

});

home.html

<div>
  <h1>Hello {{noun.person}}</h1>

Solution

Looks like its just a typo in your $routeProvider. templateURL should just be templateUrl.
