Why take this course?
Would you like to explore various ways to build your Symfony Framework dev environment? If so, then this course is for you!
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.
With such a long history, obviously, multiple ways to build your dev environment have appeared. In this course we will explore the three major approaches: local PHP installation, XAMPP server and Docker containers.

This course is perfect for novice and beginner Symfony developers who would like to explore ways to run Symfony on their Windows environments. It will also work great for you if you know some Symfony already, but haven’t tried docker containers yet.
Importantly – this is a course for Windows 10 and Windows 11 users. You don’t need to know Symfony, as I’ll show you step by step how to create a most simple fortune-cookies generator app. And then we’ll serve it in various ways.
Symfony keeps evolving, and so does this course. When something changes in Symfony, I’m going to create new videos and replace relevant parts of the course. So enroll once and learn continuously. For the list of supported Symfony versions, see the course description.
Also, make sure you join our community & support discord server, where our teaching assistants will answer all your questions regarding the course, and our experienced software engineers will be there to help you with issues in your real-world Symfony projects.
