Symfony 20 year!
This year, Symfony celebrates its 20 year anniversary. Let’s dive into some statistics of years of making web development history.

Gave a talk at the Sylius conference about @symfony.com deprecations and... laundry!

Yes, both can pile up fast if you don't take care of them regularly.

Just finished my #ForumPHP talk!

I spoke about Symfony deprecations — and the secret to never running out of clean socks 🧦

If you need help with deprecations (not laundry), @baksla.sh can help 😉
