Laravel ecosystem explained

I realize this has been suggested before, but I really think that it would be useful to have a video explaining each package in the Laravel ecosystem. It doesn't need to a whole series, something like a "Larabits" type of video, where each package gets a decent 1-2 minute introduction and popular use cases.

@ruthback Each package has an “introduction” section explaining what each is used for in the docs already?

I know, but is not a video format easily digested in one seating. Even if it's made public on YouTube, it would generate quite a bit of traffic.

Due to a lack of the following:

  1. Knowledge and experience about the Laravel ecosystem.
  2. Knowledge and experience about video making.
  3. Ability to communicate complex topics in simple terms briefly.
  4. Fluency in English - I can understand it but not speak it.
  5. Financial incentive - I'm not going to start a YT channel or education platform just for this... while Laracast already has both, which could attract new students.

Even if I had all of the above, Jeffrey and/or someone else at Laracasts is much better suited for something like this. Anyway, just a suggestion.

@ruthback if you want such as that, why not put it under feedback?

That's my bad, I didn't even realize there was such a category... Thank you for pointing that out.
