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

Symfony 5 will be released in just five weeks. This new version will include hundreds of big and small features and improvements across the entire framework. Symfony 5 will continue the road initiated by the revolutionary Symfony 4 release, with more automation, a smoother learning curve and a better developer experience.

That’s why this feels like the perfect time for a new book about Symfony. Fabien Potencier, the leader of the Symfony project, has announced the publication of a new book called Symfony 5: The Fast Track.

This book will describe the creation of an application from scratch to production. The book style will be fresh and pragmatic and it won’t explain everything in detail, because that’s the purpose of the Symfony Documentation.

Contents will cover everything you can expect in a modern web application: APIs and API Platform, Docker and containerization, Webpack and Encore, Messenger, Mailer, HTTP Client, Workflow, etc.
