Using Laravel as a Restful API for Mobile Applications

Hey everyone, I'm wanting to build a Laravel app that will communicate with android and iOS apps. I know there is probably N ways to implement this, but I want to make sure I'm on the right track.

I believe a stateless restful implementation is the right way to go for this project. As someone who is still learning laravel, is jwt-auth or dingo the way to go for this? Also, are there any good resources/examples for these two options? Particularly with authentication and requests made after authenticating?

Any information is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
