Symfony Docker

A Docker-based installer and runtime for the Symfony web framework, with FrankenPHP and Caddy inside! With also a frontend app created with Vite currently configured to create a Vue project but may be easily changed for a React or Svelte project

Getting Started

1. If not already done, install Docker Compose (v2.10+)
2. Run docker compose build --no-cache to build fresh images
3. Run docker compose up --pull always -d --wait to start the project
4. Open https://localhost in your favorite web browser and accept the auto-generated TLS certificate to access the backend project
5. Open http://localhost:3000 to access the front app
6. Run docker compose down --remove-orphans to stop the Docker containers.

Features

• Production, development and CI ready
• Just 1 service by default
• Blazing-fast performance thanks to the worker mode of FrankenPHP (automatically enabled in prod mode)
• Installation of extra Docker Compose services with Symfony Flex
• Automatic HTTPS (in dev and prod)
• HTTP/3 and Early Hints support
• Real-time messaging thanks to a built-in Mercure hub
• Vulcain support
• Native XDebug integration
• Super-readable configuration

Enjoy!
