# Laravel Breeze - Next.js Edition 🏝️
## Introduction
This repository is an implementing of the [Laravel Breeze](https://laravel.com/docs/starter-kits) application / authentication starter kit frontend in [Next.js](https://nextjs.org). All of the authentication boilerplate is already written for you - powered by [Laravel Sanctum](https://laravel.com/docs/sanctum), allowing you to quickly begin pairing your beautiful Next.js frontend with a powerful Laravel backend.
## Official Documentation
### Installation
First, create a Next.js compatible Laravel backend by installing Laravel Breeze into a [fresh Laravel application](https://laravel.com/docs/installation) and installing Breeze's API scaffolding:
```bash
# Create the Laravel application...
laravel new next-backend
cd next-backend
# Install Breeze and dependencies...
composer require laravel/breeze
php artisan breeze:install api
```
Next, ensure that your application's `APP_URL` and `FRONTEND_URL` environment variables are set to `http://localhost:8000` and `http://localhost:3000`, respectively.
After defining the appropriate environment variables, you may serve the Laravel application using the `serve` Artisan command:
```bash
# Serve the application...
php artisan serve
```
Next, clone this repository and install its dependencies with `yarn install` or `npm install`. Then, copy the `.env.example` file to `.env.local` and supply the URL of your backend:
```
NEXT_PUBLIC_BACKEND_URL=http://localhost:8000
```
Finally, run the application via `npm run dev`. The application will be available at `http://localhost:3000`:
```
npm run dev
```
> Note: Currently, we recommend using `localhost` during local development of your backend and frontend to avoid CORS "Same-Origin" issues.
### Authentication Hook
This Next.js application contains a custom `useAuth` React hook, designed to abstract all authentication logic away from your pages. In addition, the hook can be used to access the currently authenticated user:
```js
const ExamplePage = () => {
const { logout, user } = useAuth({ middleware: 'auth' })
return (
<>
<p>{user?.name}</p>
<button onClick={logout}>Sign out</button>
</>
)
}
export default ExamplePage
```
> Note: You will need to use [optional chaining](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Operators/Optional_chaining) (`user?.name` instead of `user.name`) when accessing properties on the user object to account for Next.js's initial server-side render.
