New in Symfony 2.7: Advanced table layouts for console commands
The Symfony Console component is the second most popular Symfony component, with more than eight million downloads on Packagist.org so far. One of the main factors of its success is the amount of features that it provides to create advanced console commands. In Symfony 2.7 we went a step further and added support for defining advanced table layouts.

A week of symfony #430 (23-29 March 2015)
This week, Symfony officially introduced its new installer. In addition, the String security utils were refactored and some nice performance improvements were applied to DomCrawler component and to the PHP container dumper. Lastly, the upcoming Symfony 3 version removed all the *.class container parameters, since they are no longer considered a good practice.

Introducing the new Symfony Installer
In 2011, we developed a revolutionary installation method for the Symfony 2.0 version which ultimately resulted in the creation of the Composer project. Throughout subsequent versions of Symfony, we leveraged Composer and pushed it to its limits. Having done so, it's time to introduce a new way to install Symfony: the Symfony Installer.
