Installation Configuration Blade

Hi, I am new to Laravel, and as always that bothered me is the configurations of the frameworks... i really like the way how Laravel is implemented (at least MVC and the Blade), but when i installed the packages with Composer it created a lot of files, i got rid of some files from the root, but my app tree is a mess.

So I want to know how can i create some really minimalistic project structure which can grow bigger, step by step.

Also, as Composer downloaded a lot of files, including Symfony, Monolog, etc. and i just requested Laravel, are they part of Laravel and can i have some different parts of Laravel downloaded, like the MVC and the template engine?

I would like to use a "stripped-to-the-bone" Laravel4 too!

Our latest project has ~6000 (Laravel) files :-(

But we just need:

  • routing
  • eloquent
  • validator
  • blade
