Laravel provides Jetstream, Breeze, Fortify, and UI packages for auth scaffolding. But sometimes we need to create our own login, registration, dashboard, and logout. So we can write our own logic and design. We will use the Laravel Auth facade to create custom user auth scaffolding step by step.
this tutorial, I would like to share with you how to create a custom user login and registration page in the laravel 12 application.
Laravel 12 Custom User Login and Registration Example
Step 1: Install Laravel 12
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');
}
}
