Here’s a step-by-step guide for building RESTful APIs with Laravel’s API Resource and Passport Package:

1. Installing Laravel and Setting Up a New Project: Start by installing Laravel using Composer and creating a new project using the Laravel CLI.
2. Installing the Passport Package: You can install the Passport package using Composer by running the following command:
   composer require laravel/passport.
3. Setting Up Passport: After installing the package, you need to run the following commands to set up Passport in your Laravel project:
   • php artisan migrate
   • php artisan passport:install
4. Defining the Models: Define the models for your application and create the necessary database tables. You can use the Laravel CLI to generate the models and migrations for you.
5. Creating API Resources: API Resources are used to transform your model data into JSON responses. You can create a new API resource using the Laravel CLI by running the following command: php artisan make:resource <ResourceName>.
6. Setting up Routes: Define the routes for your API by creating a new file in the routes/api.php directory. Use the Route::apiResource method to define the CRUD operations for your API.
7. Implementing the Controllers: Implement the logic for your API in the controllers. You can generate a new controller using the Laravel CLI by running the following command:
   php artisan make:controller <ControllerName>.
8. Securing the API with Passport: To secure your API, you need to add the auth:api middleware to your routes. You can also use the Passport package to generate OAuth2 tokens for authenticating API requests.
9. Testing the API: Finally, test your API using a tool like Postman to ensure that it is functioning as expected.

With these steps, you should be able to build a fully functional RESTful API with Laravel’s API Resource and Passport Package.
