Chapter 8: This chapter is oriented to learn the use of routes; which in Laravel are very extensible and full of options for groupings, types and options. Chapter 9: In this chapter, we are going to create an authentication system and all that this entails for our application by installing Laravel Breeze, which also configures Tailwind.css in the project and Alpine.js. Also we are going to expand the scheme provided by Laravel Breeze for authentication, creating a protection based on roles, to handle different types of users in specific modules of the application. Chapter 10: In this chapter, we will learn about some common Eloquent operations applied to the database using query builders.

Chapter 12: We will learn to generate test data through classes using the seeder system that the framework incorporates. Chapter 13: We will learn how to create a CRUD type Rest Api and additional methods to perform additional queries. Also we are going to protect the CRUD type Rest Api with Sanctum, using SPA and token authentication. Chapter 14: We are going to consume the Rest Api through a CRUD application in Vue 3 using axios requests and web components with Oruga UI; we will also see the process of uploading files. Also we will protect the application in Vue with login required to access its different modules using SPA authentication or Laravel Sanctum tokens. Chapter 15: We are going to learn how to manage the cache, to save access data to improve application performance and avoid bottlenecks with the database. Chapter 16: We are going to learn how to manage access policies to certain application modules through Gates and Policies. Chapter 17: We will see how to handle polymorphism relationships to reuse models that have the same behavior. Chapter 18: We will see how to manage the permissions and roles of a user to authorize certain parts of the application with a flexible scheme and widely used in web applications of all kinds using Spatie, in this chapter we will learn how to perform this integration and we will develop a module to manage this permissions. Chapter 19: In this chapter, we will see how to manage configurations, environment variables, create help files, send emails and topics of this type that, as we mentioned previously, are fundamental in the development of web applications. Chapter 20: In this chapter, we will learn about important packages in Laravel to generate excels, qrs, seo, PayPal, detect mobile navigation among others.
