Why just a single course on Laravel - PHP Framework?

On TTH there is only one tut on the Laravel Framework and which is also just scratching the surface.

Hammad,

Although Laravel's current release is 4.2 and Laravel 5 in the works, it's a new and upcoming php framework. From my understanding, Team Trees House plans on adding more Laravel content but their process takes time. If you are eager to learn more about this amazing framework, I would head over to Laracast.com. Jeffery Way does an amazing job of showing you the ins and outs of the framework. He teaches about theory, testing, and best practices. It's worth while. I also recommend Code Bright written by Dayle Rees.

There's a few courses on Udemy on Laravel 4 as well, and if Laravel 5 doesn't break anything, those (and the course here) should be useful with 5 too. I picked up one of the Udemy courses on sale for a rainy day, and I'll likely look at that after I look at this, but it gets pretty strong reviews (I'd wait till anything on Udemy is on sale before buying it though). There's also some stuff on Youtube that found that seems newbie friendly:

And there's some at Tuts+ that seem a bit more advanced. https://www.youtube.com/user/nettutsplus
