It's the return type of the method. Are you seeing this in a controller?

: RedirectResponse
Hi everyone I am using laravel 10. I am curious something. What is : RedirectResponse?
Level 2
@Snapey Yes I am seeing in controller. For example:
public function logout(Request $request): RedirectResponse
{
Auth::logout();
$request->session()->invalidate();
$request->session()->regenerateToken();
return redirect('login');
}

@onurzdgn The redirect function returns a RedirectResponse object, which you then return from the controller, satisfying the return type.
In other cases, you might want to return a view, in which case the return type will need to be different.
