This pull request introduces several improvements and new features, focusing primarily on enhancing authentication flows, adding support for passkey authentication, and improving code maintainability. The key changes include the implementation of passkey login responses, centralization of team-based redirect logic, improvements to validation rule typing, and the addition of new utility files for feature installation and path mapping.

Authentication and Redirect Enhancements:

• Introduced a new RedirectsToCurrentTeam trait to centralize logic for redirecting users to their current team after authentication actions. This trait is now used across all relevant authentication response classes, replacing duplicated code and ensuring consistency in redirect behavior. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]

• Added support for passkey-based authentication:

  • Implemented the PasskeyLoginResponse class for handling passkey login responses.
  • Updated the User model to implement the PasskeyUser contract and use the PasskeyAuthenticatable trait.
  • Registered the new response in the FortifyServiceProvider. [1] [2]
  • Added a rate limiter for passkey authentication attempts.

Validation Improvements:

• Updated validation rule type hints in PasswordValidationRules and ProfileValidationRules traits to use ValidationRule instead of the more generic Rule, improving type safety and clarity. [1] [2] [3]

Developer Experience and Utilities:

• Added the InstallFeaturesCommand artisan command, allowing developers to interactively select which starter kit features to install, improving project setup flexibility.

• Introduced the chisel-paths.php configuration file to map feature names to their corresponding Blade view files, aiding in feature management and scaffolding.
