Taylor Otwell has released a simple and easy-to-use authentication package called Laravel Breeze. It provides the minimal and Straightforward implementation of all of Laravel’s authentication features, which includes login, registration, password reset, email verification, and password confirmation. Laravel Breeze’s default view layer is made up of simple Blade templates styled with Tailwind CSS. Breeze offers an amazing starting point for creating a brand-new Laravel application. It has the following features:

• Easy and lightweight package.
• Powered by Blade and Tailwind CSS.
• Neat layout and dashboard design.
• Straightforward customization auth-related stubs.
• Easy auth route management.
• It is maintained by the Laravel team.

Requirements

• illuminate/filesystem >= 8.0
• illuminate/support >= 8.0

After installing the Laravel Breeze package, you can run this command:

This command publishes the authentication views, routes, controllers, and other resources to your application. Laravel Breeze publishes all of its code to your application so that you have full control and visibility over its features and implementation. After the installation of Breeze, you should also compile your assets so that your application’s CSS file is available.

So next, you’ve to install npm:

npm install

php artisan migrate

Next, you can navigate to your application’s /login or /register URLs in your web browser. In the routes directory, a file named auth.php contains all authentication-related routes. You can easily disable those routes which are not necessary for your project.
