Symfony is an amazing modern PHP framework. Modern, but not new. It has been there since 2005, so majority of its childhood problems have been solved long ago. During my career I’ve worked on projects build in Laravel, Cake, CodeIgniter, Next.js, Spring and many more frameworks in various languages. But Symfony is the framework of my choice.
In this beginners / intermediate course, I am going to show you how to get started with Symfony Framework. I assume you have no prior experience with Symfony, but some knowledge of PHP is required. This course is also kept updated to the most cutting-edge Symfony versions, so even if you are an advanced developer – I believe you will find something for you here too!
This is a Symfony 6 Framework: Getting Started (Hands-on 2024) course, so not only will I show you the most fundamental concepts of Symfony, but also we will work on a real-world app. We will build a weather forecast system. First as a monolithic website, and then as a backend API, which can be consumed by React, Vue or Vanilla JS apps.
What you’ll learn
- Symfony Framework 6 main concepts: routing, controllers, twig, Doctrine, forms, validation.
- Create websites, REST APIs and CLI commands using Symfony 6.
- Follow multiple hands-on tutorials to create a Weather Forecast Website & API.
- Compare Symfony 6, Laravel 10 and Next JS 14.
- Use the modern PHP 8 strict types.
