Laravel Jetstream – Scaffolding for Laravel apps

Laravel Jetstream is an application scaffolding system for Laravel that provides a more robust starting point for modern web applications compared to Laravel Breeze. While Breeze is minimalistic, Jetstream offers additional features like team management, API tokens, and two-factor authentication. It’s a great starting point if you’re building complex applications with more advanced requirements.

Key Features of Laravel Jetstream:

1. Authentication: Provides registration, login, password reset, email verification, and session management functionality.

2. Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Supports two-factor authentication for increased security using services like Google Authenticator.
3. Team Management: Includes team-based functionality, allowing users to manage multiple teams, team invitations, and switching between teams.
4. Profile Management: Includes user profile and password management features.
5. API Tokens: Provides API token management using Laravel Sanctum for building APIs with personal access tokens.
6. Email Verification: Built-in email verification with routes and controllers.
7. Frontend Options: Offers either Inertia.js (with Vue.js or React) or Livewire (with Blade templates) for frontend interactivity.
8. Session Management: Users can manage and logout active sessions across multiple devices.
