What is Symfony?

Symfony is a open-source PHP-framework for building web applications and APIs. The Symfony framework consists of a collection of components that can also be used separately from each other. Symfony is one of the most popular frameworks for PHP and is used by many companies (such as Spotify, BlaBlaCar and Trivago), but Symfony components are also used by other open-source projects such as Composer, Drupal, Laravel and Magento.

As product owner of the development team, I have worked a lot with Nic and have gotten to know him as a professional software engineer with a lot of passion and experience. Nic is a real team player, a stable force in the team, is sociable and social, but also critical and honest. Quality is very important to Nic, so he will always look for the most future-proof solution, but within the project and budget constraints. I hope to work with Nic more often in the future!

Symfony consulting services

Symfony audit

Is your Symfony application maintainable, secure and up-to-date? An independent review of your application code provides insight into the quality and security of your application. We can then work together to create a plan to improve the quality of your application.

Architecture

For more complex applications, applying the standard Symfony architecture can lead to unwanted complexity. Together we can design the optimal way to structure your Symfony application.

Test automation

When making changes to your application code, you want to be sure that existing functionality continues to work. With the help of test frameworks such as PHPUnit and Behat, we can write automated tests to validate the logic in your code.

Internationalization

Developing multilingual applications brings various challenges such as managing translations and applying localized date formats. With the help of various Symfony components, we can prepare your application for an international market.

Refactoring and migration

Outdated 'legacy' code can slow down the development of new functionality in your application. By refactoring the code and migrating to a newer version of Symfony, we can improve the quality of the code and speed up future development efforts.

Symfony technology stack

A Symfony project can require a combination of various tools and technologies. As a Symfony consultant I can help you choose the right tools for your situation and implement them in an efficient way.

On-site Symfony-consulting

For more complex issues a personal conversation is often more effective than an online video call. I am happy to come to your location for a half or full working day Symfony consult. Due to the central location of Amersfoort, I can easily reach most locations in the Netherlands including major cities such as Amsterdam and Utrecht. Upon request, consulting in surrounding countries (such as Belgium or Germany) is also possible. Request a quote to get a proposal for consulting at your location.

Symfony consulting FAQ

Symfony consulting can take from one hour up to multiple months, depending on the requirements of the projects and the result you would like to achieve. During our discovery call we will discuss your situation in order to make an estimation of how long approximately the project will take.

I have over 11 years of experience working on various Symfony projects, and have several relevant certifications.

The "Deregulering Beoordeling Arbeidsrelaties" (DBA) law was introduced in 2016 to counter false self-employment. The Dutch Belastingdienst (tax authority) assesses whether a contract should be seen as employment by looking at, among other things, the nature of the work, whether there is a relationship of authority, and the degree of embedding in your organization. Due to the nature of our collaboration and the specific expertise in the field of Symfony that I bring, the chances that our collaboration will be considered as employment are very small.
