Sep 1, 2025In September 2025, delivered a unified authentication experience in redwoodjs/sdk by centralizing AuthLayout usage at the router level. This enables all user-related routes to share a single authentication UI and ensures the Login page can import and utilize AuthLayout within the authentication flow. The refactor replaces per-component Layout wrappers with a layout function, reducing boilerplate and improving consistency across routes. Commit history provides clear traceability with two commits: 6923ff788dc41ae38a33e747c67d5aa653d587e5 (add import) and bca33395699666d64e61cabc318897d51603a4b3 (use layout function instead of wrapping the components in a LayoutComponent).
