readonly actual HTMLElement

Returns the requested element, if it doesn't exist, as many as needed will be created to best match the selector

* will match any one segment

${name} will match any one segment, and but the segment value into state[${name}]

get url: string => (data: any) => void

Pushes the given url to history, then searches for a page as normal. data will be joined with history.state and any url-based variables.
