Nested Set Models
Is there anyway to use a nested set model with eloquent ORM? or i should implement it myself ? adding the left, right, depth, parent and all their functionalities in the model etc...

@JarekTkaczyk ok ill try them out, do you have an alternative suggestion (rather than nested set) ? simple case, a menu manager, with pages and parent pages ...

@elieandraos I'm fan of closure table for most of the hierarchical data. Nested set is really suitable for big hierarchies, but with almost no insert/updates.
