User Profile

The user is able to change update his profile information.

The profile can be accessed by a logged in user by clicking User Profile from the sidebar. The user can add information like phone number, location or change the name, email, profile picture and password.

The App/Http/Livewire/LaravelExamples/Profile/Edit.php handles the update of the user information and password.

                      'new_password' => 'required|min:7|same:confirmationPassword',
                  ]);

                  $hashedPassword = auth()->user()->password;
