Differences from Symfony 3
- Symfony Flex automates many of the tasks that previously had to be done manually - it’s based on Symfony Recipes, which are a set of automated instructions.
- Version 4 also recommends a bundle-less setup, e.g. putting many of the source files directly in
/srcinstead of something like/src/AppBundle. - Installing using the Symfony skeleton will create a relative small version of the app. Additional packages need to be added. A more fully-featured version (more similar to the »Symfony Standard Edition« in Symfony 3) is available with the Symfony Demo Application.
- Minimum PHP 7.1.3
