Installing Encore (with Symfony Flex)¶

Tip

If your project does not use Symfony Flex, read Encore Installation (without Symfony Flex).

First, make sure you install Node.js and also the Yarn package manager. Then run:

$ composer require symfony/webpack-encore-pack
$ yarn install

This will create a webpack.config.js file, add the assets/ directory, and add node_modules/ to .gitignore.

Nice work! Write your first JavaScript and CSS by reading Encore: Setting up your Project!
