Summary

Laravel, a popular PHP framework, is often paired with FusionAuth to handle complex user authentication needs beyond Laravel's basic model. This tutorial demonstrates how to integrate FusionAuth with a new Laravel application for tasks such as user registration, login, and profile management. The process involves setting up a local FusionAuth instance, installing relevant PHP packages, and configuring Laravel's environment files. It guides through creating views and controllers for user registration and login, leveraging FusionAuth's API to manage user data securely. Additional considerations like middleware for route protection, user session management, and logout functionality are also covered, offering a foundational approach to implementing advanced authentication workflows in Laravel applications using FusionAuth. The code examples provided are available on GitHub, and further customization options are suggested for production environments.
