Is it possible to change the URL without re-loading the page in Meteor?

I remember in Angular, I was able to dynamically change the URL without re-loading the page simply by changing $location

Is this possible to do something similar in Meteor?

I've tried using Router.go but that does reload the page, clearing all the fields.

You can use pure JavaScript (in modern browsers) to change the URL without reloading the page. See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Guide/API/DOM/Manipulating_the_browser_history As an example, evaluate history.pushState({}, "A new page", "myNewPage.html") in the console in your browser, and notice the change in the adressbar.

I guess Iron Router uses this under the hood when you change page.
