Codecourse.com has released a video series walking you through the creation of a simple social network site with PHP, Laravel and Bootstrap.
[This tutorial shows you how to create] a social network built with Laravel and Bootstrap. Authenticate, add and accept friend requests, post to a timeline, reply to and like statuses.
The videos are pretty "bite sized" at just a few minutes each, but they walk you through all of the code you'll need to get the site up and running as well. There's 36 videos in the playlist but with the playlist on auto-play you'll go through them quickly.
