I understand that a composer is used for this, but I especially do not like it. It makes sense, but it annoys me that laravel5 github does not work out of the box, because the vendor directory is somewhat large and not necessarily laravel5, although this requires laravel.
It also puzzles me why the composer does not get it himself.
I expect I can
git clone the_laravel5_github_url
composer install
and be able to run, because it seemed like you could do it at a time , but for some reason the vendor directory is missing. I feel this makes it difficult to configure laravel as it is not so obvious.
Is there a place where someone can get the latest version of this? I find it disappointing that this is not mentioned in their readme and that you could have done this before and still cannot, despite using composer install .
