Customization Example
Suppose we need to ask the user to leave us their email and we would like to save that information.
To do this we could do the following:
Adding email field in users table.
Editing User model
In the User model we will create the methods that we consider necessary to carry out this operation: in this case we will create one to save the mail and another to verify that it exists.
Testing
We can test this on the console by running kogno c
in the terminal
