This week, the upcoming Symfony 7.2 version added a feature to render a Twig block with the Template attribute, improved the Serializer with a snake case to camel case name converter, and added support for new operators in the ExpressionLanguage component. In addition, we published new talks for the SymfonyCon Vienna 2024 conference, including sessions on containerization with DDEV and best practices for Symfony.
