Laravel for Tortoises - part 2: The Prologue

I know that there are many good tutorials out there on how to start using Laravel PHP framework. But there are also tons of people like me who could not really find their way out of the lot because of how the tutorials are actually delivered. It's very hard to have a complete tutorial for free on Laravel which can give you everything step by step. There are good resources spread all around the web.It becomes confusion to someone who has no prior notion on Laravel or who has never used a framework to find his way. Going through many websites looking for where exactly to start from becomes very tedious task to do. Plus, some of these resources are sometimes outdated.
