UPDATE: check out : check out symfony.com/book to learn about all the available formats and translations of the Symfony 5 book.

Symfony 5: The Fast Track is the best resource to learn how to develop modern web applications with Symfony 5. The book was published in paper a few weeks ago and, by popular demand, it's now available for purchase as a PDF file too.

These are all the ways you can purchase the book:

Printed (only English for now, some other languages coming later this month): Amazon.com; Amazon.co.uk; Amazon.fr; Amazon.es; Amazon.de; Amazon.in; Amazon.co.jp; Barnes & Noble; or look for ISBN 9782918390374 on any other bookseller websites.

(only English for now, some other languages coming later this month): PDF E-book English; French; German; Dutch, Spanish, Italian and a few other languages will be available soon (follow fabpot on Twitter to get the announcement).



Thanks to a massive joint effort carried out by the Symfony community, the book will be available soon in many other languages, including Spanish, Arabic, Russian, Portuguese, Japanese, and Chinese.

The book translations are part of the Symfony diversity initiative. They will make Symfony more approachable to developers who struggle with English as a second language. We'd love to translate all Symfony docs, but it's impossible because of how fast docs are updated. The book contents are much more stable, so they allow for these translations.
