How to access user attributes?

[Schop]

Hi there,

As a long time user of CI3, I've been looking forward to using CI4, and now I finally have a small project that I can use to get my feet wet. There is a lot of learning to do, but it looks really promising, especially this Auth library.

So bear with me if my question is very trivial or dumb, jut trying to learn here.

I'm having some issues trying to understand how to access the attributes of a user. I'm using the user() function, with return a User entity.

Then I'm trying to access its attributes like so: user()->attributes['username'] but that doesn't work. How should I do this?

I'm sorry to have opened this, it was as easy as user()->username of course.
