How to create Laravel Flash Messages

Laravel flash messages are a convenient way to display one-time notifications to the user after a form submission or other action. Here’s how to create flash messages in Laravel:

In your controller or route closure, use the session helper function to store a message in the session data. For example:

session()->flash('message', 'Your form was successfully submitted!');

In your view file, use the session helper function to display the flash message. You can use an if statement to check if the message exists in the session data before displaying it. For example:

@if (session('message'))
    <div class="alert alert-success">{{ session('message') }}</div>
@endif

Optionally, you can use the flash method of the Session facade to store a flash message in the session data. This method accepts the key of the message as the first argument and the value as the second argument. For example:

Session::flash('message', 'Your form was successfully submitted!');

By following these steps, you can easily create and display flash messages in Laravel to provide one-time notifications to the user.
