SEO on route redirects

Not so much a framework specific question, but considering 301 redirects are not possible using javascript, does anyone know how SEO is impacted through the use of route redirects? For instance…

{ route: 'home', redirect: '' }

Will Google be smart enough to treat mysite.com/home in such a way that a 301 redirect would cause Google to index only mysite.com?

So google bot can follow javascript redirects pretty well and from what I have read it can treat them like a 301. https://builtvisible.com/javascript-framework-seo/
