Symfony is a set of PHP Components, a Web Application framework, a Philosophy, and a Community — all working together in harmony. The leading PHP framework to create websites and web applications.

Built on top of the Symfony Components. A set of decoupled and reusable components on which the best PHP applications are built, such as Drupal, phpBB, and eZ Publish.

A passionate group of over 600,000 developers from more than 120 countries, all committed to helping PHP surpass the impossible. Embracing and promoting professionalism, best practices, standardization, and interoperability of applications.

Six good reasons to use Symfony

Reputation
Since its launch in 2005, Symfony has become a globally recognized and stable framework, widely adopted by professionals. It boasts a strong community of developers, users, and contributors who continually enhance the tool.

Permanence
Developed by SensioLabs for professional use, Symfony is designed to meet real-world demands. It benefits from long-term support from SensioLabs and an extensive ecosystem, including community forums and third-party service providers.

Strong References
Symfony is trusted by major platforms. It powers a variety of applications, from intranets and social networks to workflow management tools.

Innovation
The framework prioritizes speed, flexibility, and best practices. SensioLabs and its community consistently introduce improvements, such as the web debug toolbar, ensuring ongoing innovation.

Comprehensive Resources
Developers never face challenges alone—Symfony offers extensive documentation, community support (IRC, mailing lists), and professional services like training and consulting.

Interoperability
Symfony allows for flexible development without locking users into its ecosystem. It adheres to PHP standards and enables selective use of its components, such as dependency injection and form management, without requiring the full framework.
