Symfony and Content Management

Hi there Symfonians,

this time we want to focus on Content Management and recent developments in that part of the Symfony ecosystem.

We are very happy to welcome Pimcore as a new member in the Symfony community (https://www.pimcore.org/en/resources/blog/pimcore-5-first-public-alpha-version-released_b1851) and glad that Christoph Lühr will give us some insights. Besides that Symfony CMF (http://symfony.com/doc/master/cmf/index.html) arrived in version 2.0 and Maximilian Berghoff is going to visit our User Group in Berlin to talk about it.

The architecture and features of Pimcore 5 are showcased to give an insight into the Symfony based Open Source PIM/MDM System.

The talk will be held in english.

The talk will be held in english.
