Symfony Community Survey 2017 Results
May 5, 2017 • Published by Javier Eguiluz
A few weeks ago, we launched the Symfony Community Survey 2017 to know more about you and how do you use Symfony. We received 2,811 answers and we'd like to thank you all for taking the time to fill in the survey. These results are invaluable for us and they will help us make better decisions.
These are the summarized results:
Help the Symfony project!
As with any Open-Source project, contributing code or documentation is the most common way to help, but we also have a wide range of sponsoring opportunities.
Comments are closed.
To ensure that comments stay relevant, they are closed for old posts.
quick side note:
"Do you use OS virtualization or containerization while developing Symfony applications?" is not a yes-or-no question ;)
Question to all: what was most surprising result for you?
For me, that 60 % of people go to workshop at least once a 2 months.
In our country it's more like ~15 %.
@Tomáš Votruba: For me it was that PhpStorm is mainly used for Symfony development.
* 83% of developers don't use Symfony-based projects (Drupal, eZ Platform, etc.)
* Only 7% of developers don't have side-projects
* 27% of developers don't contribute back to Symfony for "other reasons" (I'd love to know those "other reasons")
* 60% of developers train monthly or bi-monthly
to the last moment I was hoping to see Eclipse as IDE..
Maybe that's related to the fact that a majority uses Linux and they use the same Linux version on their servers. But for Windows and Mac users, I am even more surprised!
