Nizam Passport API is a Laravel package designed to streamline API authentication setup using Laravel Passport. Compatible with Laravel versions 8, 9, 10, and 11, this package simplifies Passport integration by automating the installation and configuration process, making it ideal for API-only projects.

Features

• Automatic Laravel Passport Installation: Ensures Passport is installed and configured. 🚀

• Configuration Updates: Automatically updates api.php, web.php, and appends to auth.php to use Passport. 🔧
