Before Laravel 6, you could run make:auth immediately. However, with the release of Laravel 6, the make:auth command moved to a separate laravel/ui package. We wrote a detailed post about the reasoning behind the Laravel UI package and how to generate auth in Laravel 6.

After you update to the latest version, it’s even easier to generate auth:

composer global update laravel/installer
 
laravel --version
Laravel Installer 2.3.0
 
laravel new project --auth
