I am working on a Laravel project right now. I have a route www.website.com/auth/register. All I want is that when a hits this page, he should be asked for some credentials. If he inputs incorrect credentials, then he should not be able to see the registration page.
I have seen some web pages ask for authentication before we can see them. How is that achieved? I suppose those credentials are handled on the client side by the browser. Please help.
I think you're talking about the BASIC Authentication method, which exchanges credentials in plain text and is configured at the Web Server level.
Also, see this: https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/988/is-basic-auth-secure-if-done-over-https

I have an account in a website, i want to share it with others without giving them the credentials.
What I tried so far:
I built a chrome extension that connects to my server get the credentials then fill the login form and connect to the website, but that's just like giving them the password.
Using a PHP Web scraper library, I can open the website in my server log in and send back the HTML to the user, when the user clicks on an element in the page I can collect its css selector and send it to the server then the scraper can find and click on that element then send back the result HTML, this will work but it'll never be the same as the real website experience.
Are there any other approaches I should consider?

I'm experimenting by transfering cookies from one browser to another and I was surprised that all accounts I'm logged in to are also logged in in the new browser. My Whatsapp session however doesn't get transfered, I looked at the Whatsapp cookies and there were none of them.
How does Whatsapp keep me logged in? And is there a way to transfer one Whatsapp session to another browser?
WhatsApp web does not use cookies Instead, it uses offline website data.

You might be able to transfer the data if you can find it.

You seem to be talking about a Content Management System. I'd suggest you look at some of the (many) options out there
e.g. Wordpress or Drupal - neither is perfect but both are widely supported.

How JavaScript take user ID and password? And where do it stores that data? And how it check the authentication when next time user wants to login in?
It doesn't. JavaScript running in the browser cannot perform meaningful authentication. You'd need a server-side application that performs the authentication. At most, JavaScript could perform an AJAX request, sending the user ID and password to the server — but how exactly you'd do that would depend entirely on the application. You'd need to read the documentation for your system to find out how authentication is performed.
(It is conceivable that we're talking about a server-side application written in JavaScript à la node.js, but since the question is not tagged as such I'm assuming not.)

I'd like to create an app to filter my notifications from Facebook. For example I'd like to get all notifications about someone commenting in conversations I also took part on given Facebook group.
As #lushn pointed out below, Facebook removed the ability to access notifications in their Graph API.
Now I wonder, is there a better (and more official) way to fetch notifications from Facebook than to pose as a browser and parse HTML (for that I'd also need a proxy written in some server language, due to CORS)?
Access to notifications is not possible anymore, the required permission and the endpoint for this has been removed with v2.4 of the Graph API: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/apps/changelog#v2_4
