My folder structure is different than what's on the video?

Hi Joseph,

You (and I!) are running Laravel 5.x, whereas Hampton is running 4.x in this video. I don't think it's worth degrading to an older version. That said, I'm going through the video now, and pausing it and digging around. Hopefully this course will be updated at some point but for now, here's a guide for you and anyone else who takes the course in the meantime:

Bootstrap

• Hampton doesn't go into any of the files, and even though there are different ones in here now, the concept he describes is likely the same. And you don't need to edit any of these anyway.

Public

• Same stuff in here, except that there's some CSS already in here (Edit: no longer the case with Laravel 5.1). Mostly normalize.css type stuff. IDK what the packages folder is in 4.x, but Hampton doesn't even mention it so, meh.

Vendor

• Looks mostly the same, and there's nothing to mess with here anyway.

App

• Several of the folders in App appear to have been moved out to the project root.
  • Config, storage and tests have received this treatment, for example
• Controllers has been moved inside Http (within App)
• Models ... I'm not sure if this ended up anywhere. The one file that was in it (User.php) is now just in the app folder. Likely, model files go in here, which makes sense to me.
• Views is now out in the resources folder, and contains some new stuff
• Routes.php is now in the Http folder within App

Hope that helps! One final note: if, going forward, you can't find a folder or file Hampton is working on, in Sublime Text you can go to Find -> Find in Files (or shift-command-f on a mac), and type the name of the folder/file. You will often get a path that's specified somewhere else (for example, I found where routes.php was by searching for it, and finding the line require app_path('Http/routes.php');).

Happy coding everyone!
