Hello Laravel Friends,
In this blog, I will show how to create custom user registration and login in Laravel 10.
By default, Laravel offers a complete authentication setup that includes features such as user registration, login, and password reset. However, in some cases, you might need a more customized authentication process to fit your project’s requirements. In this tutorial, we’ll explore how to create a custom user registration and login system in Laravel 10.

Steps to Create Custom User Registration & Login in Laravel 10:
Step 1: Set Up a Laravel 10 Project
Use the below command to set up Laravel 10 project
|
1 |
composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel ProjectName "10.*" |
Step 2: Creating the User Model and Migration
Use the below command
|
1 |
php artisan make:model User -m |
This command will generate a User model and its corresponding migration file.
Open the migration file located at the database/migrations and define the schema for your users table as shown below.
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 |
Schema::create('users', function (Blueprint $table) { $table->id(); $table->string('name'); $table->string('email')->unique(); $table->string('password'); $table->timestamps(); }); |
After defining the schema, run the migration to create the users table in the database.
|
1 |
php artisan migrate |
Step 3: Creating Registration and Login Functionality
Registration:
Create a UserController using the following command:
|
1 |
php artisan make:controller UserController |
Open the UserController and add the following methods:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 |
use App\Models\User; use Illuminate\Http\Request; use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Hash; class UserController extends Controller { public function showRegistrationForm() { return view('auth.register'); } public function register(Request $request) { $request->validate([ 'name' => 'required', 'email' => 'required|email|unique:users', 'password' => 'required|min:6', ]); User::create([ 'name' => $request->name, 'email' => $request->email, 'password' => Hash::make($request->password), ]); return redirect('/login')->with('success', 'Registration successful! Please log in.'); } } |
Next, create a blade file for the registration form at the following path
resources/views/auth/register.blade.php
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 |
<form method="POST" action="{{ route('register') }}"> @csrf <input type="text" name="name" placeholder="Name"> <input type="email" name="email" placeholder="Email"> <input type="password" name="password" placeholder="Password"> <button type="submit">Register</button> </form> |
Login:
Add the following methods to your UserController
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 |
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Auth; public function showLoginForm() { return view('auth.login'); } public function login(Request $request) { $credentials = $request->only('email', 'password'); if (Auth::attempt($credentials)) { return redirect()->intended('/'); } return redirect('/login')->with('error', 'Invalid credentials. Please try again.'); } |
Create a blade file for the login form at the below path
resources/views/auth/login.blade.php
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 |
<form method="POST" action="{{ route('login') }}"> @csrf <input type="email" name="email" placeholder="Email"> <input type="password" name="password" placeholder="Password"> <button type="submit">Login</button> </form> |
Updating Routes:
Update your routes in routes/web.php to include routes for registration and login:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 |
use App\Http\Controllers\UserController; Route::get('/register', [UserController::class, 'showRegistrationForm']); Route::post('/register', [UserController::class, 'register'])->name('register'); Route::get('/login', [UserController::class, 'showLoginForm']); Route::post('/login', [UserController::class, 'login'])->name('login'); |
