Building RESTful APIs with Symfony Components

on YouTube ↗39m

" summary

Symfony components map HTTP to objects (HTTP Foundation, PSR-7 bridge), convert objects to JSON with the Serializer (groups, max-depth, custom normalizers), validate input with Validator and Form, and authenticate via Guard or JWT (Lexik bundle). Examples include using JSONResponse, returning 201 with Location header, serializing selected fields for list vs detail, and an API Platform demo: working API in ~40s that spins up a Swagger UI successfully. Key bundles: FOSRest/JMS/Hateoas/LexikJWT
