  4. url()->signedRoute(): It'll generate a signed URL for a named route.
  5. url()->temporarySignedRoute(): Generates a temporary signed URL for a named route.
  6. url()->routeSignedUrl(): Generates a signed URL for a route that requires authentication.
  7. url()->intended(): Generates a URL to redirect the user back to their intended destination after completing an action.
  8. url()->toRoute(): Generates a URL to a named route or a controller action.
  9. url()->toAction(): Generates a URL to a controller action.
  10. url()->previousOr(): Generates a URL to the previous page or a default page if the previous page doesn't exist.
  11. url()->routeIs(): Checks if the current URL matches a named route pattern.
