How does authentication work in laravel(principle)?

Question

Laravel

When the user is authenticated:
Auth::login(...)
I check this in the blade template:

@if (auth()->check())
 Вход выполнен
@endif

I'm wondering how the check method works?
As far as I understand, after authentication (for example, by the login method)
, the user identifier (id from the users table) is stored in the session
and every time the page is requested, the check method takes this identifier and searches it in the users table?

Answer 1

This is how it
checks the session
