What is Symfony?
-----------------

Symfony is a PHP full-stack web framework. It is written with speed and
flexibility in mind. It allows developers to build better and easy to maintain
websites with PHP.

Symfony can be used to develop all kind of websites, from your personal blog
to high traffic ones like Dailymotion or Yahoo! Answers.

Installation
------------

The best way to install Symfony is to use the [official Symfony Installer][7].
It allows you to start a new project based on the version you want.

Documentation
-------------

The "[Quick Tour][1]" tutorial gives you a first feeling of the framework. If,
like us, you think that Symfony can help speed up your development and take
the quality of your work to the next level, read the official
[Symfony documentation][2].

Contributing
------------

Symfony is an open source, community-driven project. If you'd like to contribute,
please read the [Contributing Code][3] part of the documentation. If you're submitting
a pull request, please follow the guidelines in the [Submitting a Patch][4] section
and use [Pull Request Template][5].

Community Reviews
-----------------

If you don't feel ready to contribute code or patches, reviewing issues and pull 
requests can be a great start to get involved and give back. In fact, people who 
"triage" issues are the backbone to Symfony's success!  
More information can be found in the [Community Reviews][8] guide.

Running Symfony Tests
----------------------

Information on how to run the Symfony test suite can be found in the
[Running Symfony Tests][6] section.
