Lack of PHP Community support

I think Antonio Jaramillo is completely right. Two-thirds of this course are outdated, and it's a shame that Hampton Paulk , or someone else in Treehouse for him, doesn't even make an effort to provide some assistance to patch the code, so that it will actually work with the current version of Slim.

Yes, I understand that everyone's busy, but the other day I posted a question regarding Twig-View on Stack Overflow, and I got an answer from Rob Allen in 13 hours ─ and he's not getting paid for it, and no one doubts that he must be a very busy man.

Students at Treehouse are paying their monthly fees, so I think we're entitled to some assistance from Treehouse staff, especially when the code shown in the videos no longer works. It's not good enough to throw everything on top of the Forum, expecting that guys like Jamarillo will come along with the code and the answers, or saying (I've had that argument thrown at me one time before) that "out there in the wild" things won't always work either, and you'll have to be able to figure out solutions on your own.

The thing is, we're not in the wild, neither are we in a live, professional context. We're in a learning context, and that's completely different.

My purpose here is not to bash Treehouse. I have learned a lot here (I am, after all, still here), and I've also had good experiences with teacher support, namely Guil Hernandez. But I think it's totally unacceptable to provide a paid course where the content doesn't work with the current version of the platform. The least it could be expected would be to provide notes or extensions to update the code. Completely ignoring the issue and relying on students to do it just makes an already bad situation even worse.

I sincerely hope that people at Treehouse will reflect on these issues.
