Build Registration and Login using Models, Views and Controllers

Most websites and web applications need user authentication. Once users sign up to your site, you can tailor content specifically to them, and restrict content to logged-in users only.

By developing user authentication using an MVC framework, your code will be easier to write and maintain.

All the concepts you need to know to understand why the system is developed the way it is are explained in detail.
