Laravel 5.0.x Docs

Bleeding edge version created from 5.0 branch of official documentation

About the Book

This book is an up-to-date compilation of the official documentation pages hosted on http://laravel.com/docs to help the community to have an easy to read & organised offline documentation that can be used as a portable reference.

I will try my best to keep this book in sync with the official documentation by reviewing the changes in documentation repo periodically. If you find any error in the documentation or want to contribute, please feel free to fork the documentation repo in github and send pull request with corrections/enhancements. When your pull request will be accepted & merged into the repo, those updates will automatically be available in this book through next periodic sync.
