Route exact path="/" not working for react github - reactjs

Question

I am confused. Still learning Reactjs though and I am having this issue. I uploaded my react app to github pages. The only thing not working is the homepage on load. I mean, when I visit the site link, it doesn't display the homepage except I click the homepage link on the navigation bar.
However, while on my local machine, the home page works fine onload. No issues at all. I am still a novice and will appreciate any help rendered. Here is my code.
import Single from './pages/single/single'
import Home from './pages/home/home'
import TopBar from "./components/topbar/TopBar";
import Write from './pages/write/write'
import Settings from './pages/settings/settings'
import Login from './pages/login/login'
import Register from './pages/register/register'
import {
BrowserRouter as Router,
Switch,
Route,
Link
} from "react-router-dom";
function App() {
const user = false;
return (
<Router>
<TopBar/>
<Switch>
<Route exact path="/">
<Home />
</Route>
<Route path="/register">
{ user? <Home/> : <Register />}
</Route>
<Route path="/login">
{user? <Home/> : <Login />}
</Route>
<Route path="/write">
{user? <Write /> : <Register/>}
</Route>
<Route path="/settings">
{user? <Settings />: <Register/>}
</Route>
<Route path="/post/:postId">
<Single />
</Route>
</Switch>
</Router>
);
}
export default App;
Is there anything that I am doing wrong here?

You can try to update your import HashRouter instead of BrowserRouter
import { HashRouter } from "react-router-dom";
Alternatively, you can use a trick to teach GitHub Pages to handle 404 by redirecting to your index.html page with a special redirect parameter. You would need to add a 404.html file with the redirection code to the build folder before deploying your project, and you’ll need to add code handling the redirect parameter to index.html. You can find a detailed explanation of this technique in Here is the proper documentiotion to deploy SPA using at github pages Link
