Shared Host: Host Gator : Missing Laravel and Composer files

[melriksdesign]

If you are on a shared host like Host Gator, don't use this version. It's missing Laravel and Composer files from the Vendor directory. You'll spend hours trying to get it to work.

Instead, grab this version https://github.com/quoleaf/92five

It has all the files needed. Be sure to set the PHP version to 5.5. All the other versions seem to error out.

With the quoleaf version and the right php, set-up takes about 15 minutes. Without it, you'll waste at least six hours troubleshooting, looking at SSH, trying to add composer, trying to add laravel.

The server defaults for the project should indicated that Laravel and Composer are required.
