FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Caffeinated Presenter
Laravel 5 view presenters, originally developed after the Laracasts video tutorial on the same topic: View Presenters From Scratch.
Presenters allow you to manipulate any form of data for display within a view file. A simple example would be if you have a user entity with fields for the first and last names, how would you simply display the full name of the user within your view file? The most common solution would be something like the following:
Which works, but every time you need to display a user's full name, you'd have to type this out. What if instead it was something like this:
Isn't that much more readable than the previous example? Now you may argue that you could add this type of logic directly to your model class, which you could, but then you'll find that your model classes are riddled with methods that are manipulating view logic. I don't believe model entities should be responsible for this. Their only job is to pull the requested data from the database and hand it over. That's it.
Quick Installation
Begin by installing the package through Composer.
And that's it! With your coffee in reach, start building out some awesome presenters!
Usage
1. Pull in trait
Within your model, simply pull in the Caffeinated\Presenter\Traits\PresentableTrait trait, which will automatically instantiate the Caffeinated Presenter class.
2. Define your presenter class
Define a protected $presenter variable pointing to the namespace of your presenter class.
3. Create your presenter class
Create a new class as defined within your model earlier - in our case we'll create a new directory within the app directory called Presenters, and create a Page file. Presenters should extend the abstract Caffeinated\Presenter\Presenter class.
4. Define your presenter methods
Your model instance is passed through to your presenter class automatically, and is accessible via $this->entity. With that, you may now define any number of presenter methods here as you wish.
The usage for the above would then be {{ $page->present()->title }}.
