SymfonyDay Montreal 2026 is happening on June 4 at L'Espace Quartier Latin (UQAM). It's the perfect opportunity to sharpen your skills and meet the core team in Canada!
🎤 Speaker announcement!
We are thrilled to host Robin Chalas, CEO & Co-Founder, baksla.sh, for his talk "Symfony 8: The Hexagonal Track":
Structuring an application around its domain rather than its framework is an old idea. Making it practical has sometimes felt like swimming against the current.
Thanks to the way Symfony 8 leverages modern PHP, this drastically changes. Recent evolutions in both the language and the framework align naturally with hexagonal thinking and tactical DDD patterns — no workarounds, no fighting the tools.
Join me as I wear both my Core Team member and DDD practitioner hats to give a pragmatic look at putting your business logic first, building applications that scale with your domain's complexity and remain maintainable as they grow, with Symfony's blessing.

From 2022 to 2025, I worked on a Symfony project where the lead developer chose DDD simply because he liked it. We spent more than double the budget and delivered the same result a standard Symfony setup would have produced.
The lesson: never add complexity your project doesn't actually need.
