Laravel 4 is a huge step forward for the PHP community. It’s beautifully written, full of features and the community is presently exploding. It’s with this in mind that I would like to show how to deploy Laravel 4 applications, using Artisan.

Think of these additional features more like guidelines to help users fill out forms concerning unique or unfamiliar content.
