This seems like a pretty basic flow, and Laravel has so many nice solutions for basic things, I feel like I’m missing something.
A user clicks a link that requires authentication. Laravel’s auth filter kicks in and routes them to a login page. User logs in, then goes to the original page they were trying to get to before the ‘auth’ filter kicked in.
Is there a good way to know what page they were trying to get to originally? Since Laravel is the one intercepting the request, I didn’t know if it keeps track somewhere for easy routing after the user logs in.
If not, I’d be curious to hear how some of you have implemented this manually.
