$user = new User; $user->name = "John Smith"; $user->email = "john@example.com"; $user->password = "password123"; $user->save();
$user = User::find(1); $user->name = "Jane Doe"; $user->save();
$user = User::where('email', $email)->first(); if ($user && password_verify($password, $user->password)) { // user is authenticated } else { // authentication failed }This code finds a user by their email address, checks if the provided password matches the user's hashed password, and either authenticates the user or returns an error.
