Symfony 4 - Introduction and Installation
Note: This is not an official guide to install Symfony. I do not hold any licenses or rights towards Symfony. I am not affiliated with Fabien and/or the Symfony trade-mark in any way shape or form; I thought this would be helpful to be shared here :smile:. (Pls don't sue me <3 )
Note: To install Symfony 4 you need to make sure you're able to run Symfony 7.1+ and have access to Composer.

1) Open up your command line
1.1) Using Composer type the following command
Code:
composer create-project symfony/skeleton [*PATHNAME]
*PATHNAME being where you want your project to be installed, starting from \User\.
2) Now write the following command in to your command line:
Code:
cd [*PATHNAME]
php bin/console server:run
This will run your Symfony project using PHP's inbuilt web server.

And that's it! Symfony installed in two-simple steps. There is much more to Symfony than what meets the eye, with Symfony4 just being released 30/11/17 I can't wait for what people manage to create!
