Is it worth learning Laravel 5.4?

Question

Laravel

Hello. I studied Laravel a little, looked at the course on creating a blog on Laravel. Now it is necessary to develop further, but the question is: is it worth learning an outdated version of Laravel? “Why learn junk,” you say, but, unfortunately, I don’t know English and I can’t study from the documentation, and there are more video lessons in English and they are much better, but I don’t know English well. There is a book on Laravel, but I don’t know what version it is, I think if it was written at the end of 17, beginning of 18, it’s 5.4 or 5.5, but it’s boring to study the book ... There is a documentation site, but there is version 5.4, but that’s all better than sitting with an interpreter... What do you say? Try to read off-line documentation or study 5.4 for now

The Laravel architecture is limited to the major (first) digit. 3.x (the first one I encountered) is different from 4.x, and it, in turn, is different from 5.x. These versions can be called completely different frameworks, although some cross-cutting idea can be traced.
Minor releases have a minimum of backward compatibility problems and bring mostly only small goodies. Consequently: 5.4 is not much different from 5.6, differences in some configs, internals, some features, and so on.
And I will not answer the question "is it worth it?" If you really wanted to - such questions would not arise;)
