PHP is ugly

PHP is incosistent

PHP core has no plan

Not enough releases!

Right!

But… 

It is not about Art

It is not about Beauty

We are not Artists

We are craftsmen

Aspiring to be Masters

Before he could be elected to become a master craftsman. He would then have to produce a sum of money and a masterpiece before he could actually join the guild.

Symfony let you focus on

Or at least ensure
that everyone else
can follow your
(organized) chaos
