Spring boot security

So I am new to SpringBoot security and have tried searching this but have not managed to find any concrete answers. Upon authorising HTTP requests in the SecurityFilterChain class it has .formLogin() and .httpBasic(). I was wondering what is the difference between these two? Should I use both or just one of them? What circumstances should I use either or in? I am aware that .formLogin() creates a HTML log in page but apart from that what is the difference with these?
