Symfony provides an architecture, components and tools for developers to build complex web applications faster. Choosing symfony allows you to release your applications earlier, host and scale them without problem, and maintain them over time with no surprise.
Symfony is based on experience. It does not reinvent the wheel: it uses most of the best practices of web development and integrates some great third-party libraries.
Symfony is a Model-View-Controller (MVC) framework written in PHP that's aimed at building web applications. If you're already familiar with the MVC paradigm, you won't be surprised by the way symfony organizes scripts. If you aren't familiar with MVC, you just need to understand that separating the code into three parts -- the logic code (called the Model), the presentation code (the View), and the request handling code (the Controller) -- is a good way to ensure the maintainability and reusability of code.
Not only is Symfony an MVC implementation in PHP, it also integrates a lot of objects that facilitate the development of web applications -- and integrates them all with a coherent syntax. Smart URLs, code generation, easy templating, internationalization, caching, automated form validation, and Ajax, are among the most appreciated symfony features. Developing an application with symfony is slightly different than building it with any other framework, or without any framework at all. It's faster, more productive, and just plain fun. But enough talk, let's see some code. [From Francois Zaninotto’s Article]
