How does Laravel handle authentication?

Laravel provides a straightforward way to handle user authentication. It includes built-in features for user registration, login, and password resets.

To set up authentication, follow these steps:

1. Run the command: composer require laravel/ui to install the UI package.
2. Generate the authentication scaffolding using: php artisan ui vue --auth.
3. Run npm install && npm run dev to compile the assets.

This will create routes, controllers, and views for user authentication. For example, the login route can be found in routes/web.php:

Auth::routes();
