  • Cook: an alternative to Symfony Flex to execute package-embedded recipes for any PHP project
    2 projects | /r/PHP | 14 Feb 2023
    It works by fetching a separate repository containing the recipe, either hosted by Symfony in symfony/recipes and symfony/recipes-contrib, or self-hosted with some extra steps required. It's good and it works. But it could be better: embedded in repositories. Unfortunately the Symfony team doesn't plan on adding this feature. It's been rejected here, here and here.

  • Examine the Reassuringly Robust Flexibility and Extensibility of Symfony Security
    3 projects | dev.to | 22 Mar 2022
    This setup can be automated and that's why Symfony includes Symfony Flex, a tool to simplify the installation/removal of packages in Symfony applications. Technically speaking, Symfony Flex is a Composer plugin that is installed by default when creating a new Symfony application and which automates the most common tasks of Symfony applications.”
