title: Laravel 4, view composers against @include
body: <p>I noticed if I pass a second parameter to @include like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>@include('sidebars.pages', array('categories' =&gt; Category::all()))
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Then it is possible to replicate the concept of render partials within views and render partials within partials like in Rails.</p>
  
  <p>Do I still need view composers with this functionality?</p>
  
  <p>I appreciate any help!</p>
