Symfony is RAD
summary
A minimal Twitter-for-jokes called Chuckler is built from scratch using Symfony 7 in a few minutes: user registration, login with email verification, password reset, a Chuckle entity (message, author, createdAt), CRUD forms, timeline, and live “giggles” (likes) all wired up. Code generation via Symfony MakerBundle, Docker and the Symfony CLI scaffold most files; styling uses Symfony Asset Mapper + Bootstrap; interactivity uses Symfony UX Turbo (Drive, Frames, Streams) and Mercure real-time updates. Demo has minor hiccups but the full feature set works end to end.
