Guards vs Roles in laravel?

Question

Laravel

What is the best way to separate roles? Guards or just create a role_id in the table?

Answer 1

How does one interfere with the other? In the general case, guards and policies allow you to use a bunch of helpers (in templates, in controllers, including resource ones, in middleware) and where they will get data for this from there (a field in the user model, a field in a separate role table, a field in table of the application object model, some combination of this (for example, author + moderator)) - all this is already described by the code.
