ℹ In this recording I show you how to create and submit a form in Symfony.

Hi Gary, thank you for this nice video about Symfony Forms. 👍😊 Only as a suggestion it would be great if you could create a short video about how to create a search form based on some entities too.

Great video really helped me understand forms. How would I validate a form using php attributes intsead of annotations?

[bakaleisanich]

Can you please tell us about the use of DTO, there is often a bunch of this model with a form

Hi Gary you are doing amazing work. I have a question what I use custom html form and do you not configure csrf from the form type class or stuff. How can I use csrf directly in the HTML form and validate it in the controller. I am having trouble with it. Let's say I am try to create a simple post with HTML like form not using the formtype class

Hi Gary, since you're extending from AbstractController, it already has a render method calling the twig ins't it? So actually injecting the Envirionment $twig should not be needed?

Hey Gary, great video! I was wondering if you have any idea how to fix a problem I have came across... during the step at 1:58 when you make the migration file I get an error in my console ( SQLSTATE[08006]) and I have no clue how to fix it?

Can we add an Object type in symfony forms? If yes how we can get it?)

[mahmoudalhussain]

How to use forms in symfony which not related to entities ?

[TomiBorchert]

how to set labels? or how to hide them? Symfony Forms is setting label automatically for me but it's badly formatted, taking it directly from Entity.
