For applications requiring authentication, Laravel offers built-in tools like Sanctum or Jetstream. You can protect API routes and access them from React using tokens or cookies.

To protect API routes, use Laravel’s middleware:

func deleteBook(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	w.Header().Set("Content-Type", "application/json")
	params := mux.Vars(r)
	for index, item := range books {
		if item.ID == params["id"] {
			books = append(books[:index], books[index+1:]...)
			break
		}
	}
	json.NewEncoder(w).Encode(books)
}

Start the server by running the following command in your terminal:

  query {
    books {
      title
      author
    }
  }
