⁠Symfony Demo Application

The "Symfony Demo Application" is a reference application created to show how to develop Symfony applications following the recommended best practices.

⁠Requirements

• PHP 7.0 or higher;
• PDO-SQLite PHP extension enabled;
• and the usual Symfony application requirements⁠.

If unsure about meeting these requirements, download the demo application and browse the http://localhost:8000/config.php script to get more detailed information.

⁠Installation

First, install the Symfony Installer⁠ if you haven't already. Then, install the Symfony Demo Application executing this command anywhere in your system:

$ symfony demo

# if you're using Windows:
$ php symfony demo

If the demo command is not available, update your Symfony Installer to the most recent version executing the symfony self-update command.

⁠Usage

There is no need to configure a virtual host in your web server to access the application. Just use the built-in web server:

$ cd symfony-demo/
$ php bin/console server:run

This command will start a web server for the Symfony application. Now you can access the application in your browser at http://localhost:8000⁠. You can stop the built-in web server by pressing Ctrl + C while you're in the terminal.
