The main advantage of the definitive guide is that all information about symfony are available in one place. The right side tag cloud also help a lot to go to the correct part of the documentation.
I still look at it to get references about cache, slot and other stuffs. Some information are only available in this book. Of course, as the book contains a lot of deprecated features; browsing the source code is also a great source of information not always very easy for a beginner. Glad to see the book is going to be ported to sf1.4 On Tue, Feb 2, 2010 at 9:25 AM, Fabien Potencier < fabien.potenc...@symfony-project.com> wrote: > The book is now available in the SVN repository, ready for anyone to > contribute. > > More information are available on the symfony docs mailing-list: > > > http://groups.google.com/group/symfony-docs/browse_thread/thread/66c6eb6c91ee6726 > > > Fabien > > -- > Fabien Potencier > Sensio CEO - symfony lead developer > sensiolabs.com | symfony-project.org | fabien.potencier.org > Tél: +33 1 40 99 80 80 > > On 1/29/10 12:41 PM, Gareth McCumskey wrote: > >> As it stands right now symfony has WAAAAYYYY more documentation than >> any comparable framework out there.
