Laravel Now Has Native Passkeys: A Complete Guide to laravel/passkeys

Short summary

Laravel released laravel/passkeys, a first-party WebAuthn package for passwordless authentication with server, npm client, and Fortify integration. Setup is minimal—add the package, run migrations, set a user handle secret, and enable passkeys via Fortify Features. No extra tables or custom route wiring needed.

  • Native Laravel package ships with server package, npm client, and Fortify integration
  • Minimal setup: one trait on User model, one line in Fortify config, standard migrations
  • Replaces third-party solutions and hand-rolled WebAuthn ceremonies
