To create a route for a form that destroys a Post record, you can use the following route definition:
Route::delete('/posts/{post}', 'PostController@destroy')->name('posts.destroy');
Then, you can create the form markup like this:
<form action="{{ route('posts.destroy', $post) }}" method="POST">
@csrf
@method('DELETE')
<button type="submit">Delete Post</button>
</form>
In the controller, you can define the destroy method like this:
public function destroy(Post $post)
{
$post->delete();
return redirect()->route('posts.index');
}
