These are the slides of the symfony 1.4 workshop I did at Symfony Day Cologne 2010. Not sure how useful they are for people (since the workshop was more about actually developing something), but perhaps it can help someone get started.
The document discusses common myths about the Symfony framework and attempts to dispel them. It addresses claims that Symfony is hard to learn, extremely coupled, not really programming but just configuration, restrictive, and badly performing. For each myth, counterarguments are provided explaining why Symfony is in fact easy to learn through documentation and community support, has become decoupled over time, allows for significant programming through controllers and custom code, is flexible through configuration, and can be optimized for performance.
The document discusses different types of documentation including functional documentation like requirements and design documents, technical documentation like APIs and unit tests, and other resources like issues, tutorials, and FAQs. It was created by Stefan Koopmanschap and provides his contact information and links to further resources.
The document discusses how developers can get help and contribute to the Symfony community. It introduces the community manager, Stefan Koopmanschap, and explains that developers can get help through communication channels like forums, IRC, and mailing lists. It also encourages developers to give back by contributing code, documentation, or participating in meetups and conferences to strengthen the community.
Integrating symfony and Zend Framework (PHPBarcelona 2009)Stefan Koopmanschap

This document summarizes a presentation about integrating the Symfony and Zend frameworks. It discusses using Symfony components within Zend Framework projects and vice versa. It provides examples of integrating features like the event dispatcher, dependency injection, templating and more between the two frameworks. The presenter advocates for no limitations and picking the best tools for the job from various PHP frameworks and components.
The document discusses integrating the Symfony and Zend frameworks. It describes using Zend components like Zend_Service_Twitter in Symfony projects. It also discusses using Symfony components like the Event Dispatcher and Dependency Injection in Zend Framework projects. The document encourages picking the right tools from different frameworks and libraries to integrate them instead of limiting oneself to a single framework.
This document discusses the integration of the Symfony and Zend frameworks during a PHP Benelux meeting in Tilburg on September 29, 2009. It covers various implementation techniques, including setting up plugins, utilizing Twitter for comments, and employing components from both frameworks. The presentation also highlights the benefits of using dependency injection and templating options within the Symfony stack.
This document outlines essential tools for Windows PHP developers, highlighting the PHP stack, IDEs, frameworks, content management systems, and various development tools. Key recommendations include the Microsoft Web Platform Installer, Zend Server, and IDE options like VS.PHP and Zend Studio, along with various frameworks such as Symfony and Zend Framework. Additionally, it emphasizes the importance of community resources and collaboration among developers.
Refactoring is altering the internal structure of code without changing its external behavior or functionality. It improves code quality by increasing readability and maintainability. Refactoring should be done continuously and in small increments to prevent breaking code. It requires knowledge of the codebase and unit tests to safeguard against unintended consequences. A rewrite completely replaces large portions of code, while refactoring preserves existing code and functionality through disciplined transformations.
The document discusses common myths about the Symfony framework. It addresses criticisms that Symfony is hard to learn, extremely coupled, just configuration rather than programming, restrictive, badly performing, and the ultimate tool. For each myth, it provides counterarguments, explaining that Symfony has good documentation, a supportive community, and flexibility. It concludes that while Symfony has a learning curve, it must fit the project and team, and there is no single ultimate tool.
Refactoring is altering the internal structure of code without changing its external behavior or functionality. It improves code quality by enhancing readability, maintainability and extensibility. Successful refactoring requires knowledge of the codebase, a structured API, and unit testing. Refactoring can be done continuously or in scheduled chunks, and should be performed by those familiar with the code. Tips include writing tests first, using documentation, and avoiding full reliance on IDE refactoring tools.
Refactoring is altering the internal structure of code without changing its external behavior or functionality. It improves code quality by increasing readability and maintainability through disciplined, behavior-preserving transformations. Successful refactoring requires codebase knowledge, a structured API, and unit testing to safeguard against unexpected side effects of changes. Refactoring takes less effort than rewriting code from scratch and helps ensure quality by keeping the system fully working after each small change.
The document discusses common myths about the Symfony framework. It addresses criticisms that Symfony is hard to learn, extremely coupled, focuses only on configuration rather than programming, is restrictive, performs poorly, and claims it is the ultimate tool. For each myth, the document provides counter arguments explaining why Symfony is easy to learn with documentation and community support, has become less coupled over time, involves significant programming beyond just configuration, and allows for flexibility and customization. It also notes performance depends on caching and configuration choices.
