Laravel already has built-in authentication mechanisms, but integrating React JS for authentication adds an extra layer of security. React JS facilitates client-side validation, reducing the need for server round-trips for input validation. Additionally, React JS auth scaffolding allows you to implement features like token-based authentication (e.g., JWT) or OAuth, enhancing the security of your application
Step 1: Install Laravel App
composer create-project laravel/laravel example- ReactJSAuth
So, Run below command
composer require laravel/ui
The Laravel UI package can generate the necessary views, routes, and controllers for user authentication, including login, registration, password reset, and email verification. It provides a convenient command to generate the authentication scaffolding with pre-built views and logic.
php artisan ui react
OR
php artisan ui react --auth
Now let's run bellow command for install npm:
npm install && npm run dev
Next run migration command:
php artisan migrate
Run Laravel App:
php artisan serve
Now, Go to web browser, type the given URL and see the output:
http://localhost:8000
