This document summarizes Symfony, an open-source PHP web framework. It discusses that Symfony provides architecture, components and tools to create complex web applications quickly and efficiently. It originated in 2005 and is sponsored by Sensio Labs. Symfony follows the MVC pattern to isolate business logic from the user interface. It allows developers full control and includes tools to help with enterprise development. Many websites use Symfony due to its speed, compatibility and low overhead. To get started with Symfony, contact Momentum Design Lab.
