The Problem

We seem to have more&more users who are not very accustomed to all the Laravel jargon, because it's their first/second/third Laravel project, so they haven't gone though most of the Laravel features.

Since we don't explain a lot of stuff we consider general-Laravel-knowledge, these people get stuck or wonder what this is and that is. Which must be very frustrating, leading them to think "our docs are bad".

The Solution

We should run another pass through our entire docs, reading it like it were our first/second/third Laravel project and we decided to use Backpack. That'll probably convince us we need to:

  • provide links to the Laravel docs when we use Laravel jargon (ex: accessors/mutators/request/validation/etc)
  • explain the MVC concept and the normal request lifecycle (route-middleware-controller-model-view) - a diagram would probably help a lot here
  • what else...?
