How to Create Custom User Login and Registration in Laravel 11?

Hi, Dev

In this tutorial, I'll guide you through the process of creating a custom user login and registration page in a Laravel 11 application.

Laravel offers various packages for authentication scaffolding, such as Jetstream, Breeze, Fortify, and UI. However, there are times when we need to build custom login, registration, dashboard, and logout functionalities to implement our unique logic and design. In this tutorial, we will use the Laravel Auth facade to create custom user authentication scaffolding step by step.

So, let's follow the following steps to complete a simple example:

you can see below preview of the pages:

Login Page:

Register Page:

laravel-11-register

Dashboard Page::

laravel-11-login-register-dashboard

Step for Laravel 11 Custom Auth Login and Registration Tutorial

Step 1: Install Laravel 11

Step 2: Create Routes

Step 3: Create Controller

Step 4: Create Blade Files

Run Laravel App

Step 1: Install Laravel 11

This step is not required; however, if you have not created the Laravel app, then you may go ahead and execute the below command:

composer create-project laravel/laravel example-app

Step 2: Create Routes

In this step, we need to create a custom routes for login, register, home, and logout. So open your routes/web.php file and add the following routes.

routes/web.php

<?php

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;

use App\Http\Controllers\Auth\AuthController;

Route::get('/', function () {

return view('welcome');

});

Route::get('login', [AuthController::class, 'index'])->name('login');

Route::post('post-login', [AuthController::class, 'postLogin'])->name('login.post');

Route::get('registration', [AuthController::class, 'registration'])->name('register');

Route::post('post-registration', [AuthController::class, 'postRegistration'])->name('register.post');

Route::get('dashboard', [AuthController::class, 'dashboard']);

Route::get('logout', [AuthController::class, 'logout'])->name('logout');

Step 3: Create Controller

In this step, we will create a new AuthController controller with index(), registration(), postLogin(), postRegistration(), dashboard(), create(), and logout() methods.

app/Http/Controllers/Auth/AuthController.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers\Auth;

use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Auth;

use Session;

use App\Models\User;

use Hash;

use Illuminate\View\View;

use Illuminate\Http\RedirectResponse;

class AuthController extends Controller

{

/**

* Write code on Method

*

* @return response()

*/

public function index(): View

{

return view('auth.login');

}

/**

* Write code on Method

*

* @return response()

*/

public function registration(): View

{

return view('auth.registration');

}

/**

* Write code on Method

*

* @return response()

*/

public function postLogin(Request $request): RedirectResponse

{

$request->validate([

'email' => 'required',

'password' => 'required',

]);

$credentials = $request->only('email', 'password');

if (Auth::attempt($credentials)) {

return redirect()->intended('dashboard')

->withSuccess('You have Successfully loggedin');

}

return redirect("login")->withError('Oppes! You have entered invalid credentials');

}

/**

* Write code on Method

*

* @return response()

*/

public function postRegistration(Request $request): RedirectResponse

{

$request->validate([

'name' => 'required',

'email' => 'required|email|unique:users',

'password' => 'required|min:6',

]);

$data = $request->all();

$user = $this->create($data);

Auth::login($user);

return redirect("dashboard")->withSuccess('Great! You have Successfully loggedin');

}

/**

* Write code on Method

*

* @return response()

*/

public function dashboard()

{

if(Auth::check()){

return view('dashboard');

}

return redirect("login")->withSuccess('Opps! You do not have access');

}

/**

* Write code on Method

*

* @return response()

*/

public function create(array $data)

{

return User::create([

'name' => $data['name'],

'email' => $data['email'],

'password' => Hash::make($data['password'])

]);

}

/**

* Write code on Method

*

* @return response()

*/

public function logout(): RedirectResponse

{

Session::flush();

Auth::logout();

return Redirect('login');

}

}

Step 4: Create Blade Files

Here, we need to create blade files for login, register, and home page. So let's create the files one by one:
