Laravel 5 how to display blade content on guest/authenticated user?

I can read from the documentation that I can write the following in order to understand if the user is authenticated :

if (Auth::check())
{
 // The user is logged in...
}

Until there everything is working for me (authentication)

What I still miss is how should I manage the authentication with blade. In order, for example to display a different menu, if the user Is or isn't authenticated.

But I wouldn't duplicate all my blade templates to obtain the above. I would like to understand how to place conditions(where controller or view?) in order to display (yeld) different content based on current auth status

e.g. the pseudo code I have in mind for my app.blade.php file:

....
<body >
     @if (Auth::check())
     {
     @include('menu')
     @yield('content')
     }@else{
     @include('menu.guest')
     }
</body>

is this the good way?

Thanks

You can use blade directives take a look

    @auth
       // The user is authenticated...
   @endauth

yes you can check it like that, but you have few errors in your code, you cant use curly brackets in blade template. Do something like this.

<body >
     @if (Auth::check())
         @include('menu')
         @yield('content')
     @else
         @include('menu.guest')
     @endif
</body>

Yes this way is good when you are using same template. You can also make separate file and include as per your authentication status.
