Was sha256 implemented at some point?

[joaquinodz]

There are some projects (like the one i'm working on) that require password hashed with this algorithm + salt.

I managed to make a rough implementation with my nearly non-existent knowledge of Laravel (first project using it).

I would like to submit a PR implementing it (in a cleaner & nicer way, of course) in the framework but before doing it i have to ask:
¿Was sha256 implemented at some point and then removed/replaced with Argon+BCrypt?
