New in the Laravel catalog - Vendor

Question

I followed all the steps from the Laravel installation guide.

Using Composer, the project is successfully installed on the server and works like a charm.

During installation, Composer adds some dependencies to the vendor directory.

My question is: why are there so many dependencies for the Hello World project. I do not understand the need for directories. Here is the list:

• Ben
• classpreloader
• composer
• d11wtq
• Filp
• ircmaxell
• jeremeamia
• Laravel
• Monologue
• nesbot
• nikic
• paragonie
• patches
• phpseclib
• predis
• PSR
• Stack
• Swiftmailer
• symphony

I come from the development of Zend. Therefore, in the supplier catalog, I expected only the Laravel framework, nothing more. Why do I need more than 4200 third-party script files.

Thanks for answering.
