Laracasts - Thoughts? Opinions? Roadmap to proper use?

Totally new to Laravel. I know a bit of PHP but most of my web development experience has been with Rails, although I've never done anything overly complicated with it either. https://trackeasy.fun/usps/ https://showbox.tools/ https://speedtest.vet/

I really like the idea of Laravel because it seems like it would be MUCH easier to deploy than Rails and I'm thinking about taking the plunge and subscribing to Laracasts. So a couple of questions:

Is Laracasts worth it? Are there any better, easily accessible learning resources out there?

Any pre-reqs? Meaning, is there anything I should learn about Laravel first before starting Laracasts?

Is there any sort of roadmap or proper viewing order other than starting with #1?

Yes. Laracasts is worth it. I have been a continuous member since 11 months. Never though of ending the subscription. I have not taken full advantage of 11 months. But, I have learned a lot. I didn't know anything about Test Driven Development before. Now, I know that TDD is a very good approach to develop a website.

You should know Object Oriented PHP.

Start with 'Laravel 6 from scratch' series. It is also a good idea to read the Laravel Documentation often. Because you can't remember all the functions at once.

Also if you start learning PHP well, laravel will fall into place.

It is a PHP framework.

Is Laracasts worth every penny? Will be there any better, readily available mastering resources out there? https://theclashroyalemod.com/ https://thepandahelper.com/

Virtually any prereqs? Meaning, can there be something I ought to find out about Laravel first before beginning Laracasts?
