« A week of symfony » blog posts

This week, we launched the new Twig playground, a tool that lets you test and experiment with Twig features in a safe, sandboxed environment. While Symfony development activity was lighter than usual due to the year-end holidays, we introduced a new is_granted_for_user() function to check authorization for a given user directly in Twig templates.

This week, Symfony development activity focused on fixing bugs in maintenance versions and adding new features for the upcoming Symfony 7.3 release. Meanwhile, we published blog posts about the new Twig features and a new case study about Symfony.

This week, Symfony 7.2.1 was released as the first maintenance version of the 7.2 branch. Meanwhile, the upcoming Symfony 7.3 version introduced a new JsonEncoder component that is 10 times faster than the Serializer component and also supports streaming payloads.

This week, Symfony celebrated the SymfonyCon 2024 Vienna conference with great success. This annual event brought together the global Symfony community to exchange ideas, learn new things, and collaborate on contributions to the Symfony project. In addition, the upcoming Symfony 7.3 version introduced support for pre-compressing web assets and a new userIsGranted() security method to test user authorization without relying on the session.

Finally, next week, the global Symfony community will gather in Vienna for the SymfonyCon 2024 conference.

This week, Symfony 5.4.45, 6.4.13, and 7.1.6 maintenance versions were released.
