Symfony has a ton of documentation available online. The only problem is, with so many different versions (1.0 – 1.4) in the wild, it can be hard to locate exactly the right resource when you need it. Below is a simple and straightforward list of the most useful documentation:
Jump to the By Format or By Version.
- Getting Started:
- Tutorials (Jobeet / Askeet / Cookbook)
- “The Book”:
- Reference Guide (configuration, events, tasks):
- Admin Generator:
- Forms:
- API:
- Installing/Upgrading:
- What’s New:
- Symfony 1.3/1.4
- Symfony 1.2
- Symfony 1.0




Nice list
I was also thinking about creating such thing. I was also wondering about some kind of symfony documentation and blog spider, which would crawl some distinct articles and store information about it… Anyway, thanks!
