This concludes how to deploy and disable your applications. Using rsync is very convenient and fast, as opposed to FTP. Also, although we have used rsync to synchronize to the dev
server (and perhaps the staging area), it's not a good idea to use this method for a live production area.
Throughout the book, we have taken a journey on how Symfony aids us in rapid application development. Looking at the main features again, we can see that:
The use of Symfony CLI tasks helps generate modules, projects, and forms
We can tap into a vast amount of plugins and also refactor our own modules to create our own plugins
Configuration files make Symfony extremely flexible
The ORM layer makes communicating with the database easy
Integration with third-party libraries can be seamless
Creating a multilingual site is very simple
With all of these features, Symfony does, in fact, provide a tightly-coded rapid-application framework.
