Symfony Demo Application

The "Symfony Demo Application" is a reference application created to show how to develop applications following the Symfony Best Practices.

Requirements

• PHP 7.1.3 or higher;
• PDO-SQLite PHP extension enabled;
• and the usual Symfony application requirements.

Installation

Install the Symfony client binary and run this command:

$ symfony new --demo my_project

Alternatively, you can use Composer:

$ composer create-project symfony/symfony-demo my_project

Usage

There's no need to configure anything to run the application. If you have installed the Symfony client binary, run this command to run the built-in web server and access the application in your browser at http://localhost:8000:

$ cd my_project/
$ symfony serve

If you don't have the Symfony client installed, run php bin/console server:run. Alternatively, you can configure a web server like Nginx or Apache to run the application.

Tests

Execute this command to run tests:

$ cd my_project/
$ ./bin/phpunit
