Rename existing "Symfony" project template to "Symfony Standard Edition" and add "Symfony Flex" with selection of recipes ?

check required PHP version 7.1.

project based on symfony/skeleton:
composer create-project symfony/skeleton:3.3.x-dev demo

recipes:
https://github.com/symfony/recipes
https://github.com/symfony/recipes-contrib

Symfony 4 demo:

A tip for flex users:

Add these two lines manually:

After that jumping between template and controller is working again. :)

But I couldn't find a workaround for goto-translation.

@Haehnchen does Symfony Flex projects properly detected and PS suggest to enable Symfony plugin?

[Haehnchen]

yes, in additional every single component will trigger it via: https://github.com/Haehnchen/idea-php-symfony2-plugin/commit/f1779090c3f118785d8f479a384359dc196c03b7

I suggest checking the requirements in composer.json. The user might not directly use Symfony components but other libraries might require them (Symfony console is very wide-spread). So people might be confused why the Symfony plugin got enabled without them "using" Symfony components.

[Haehnchen]

Symfony console is very wide-spread

Thats the point. this plugin provides not only support for a Symfony fullstack application. there is for example also a console arguments completion. so we are moving away from this fullstacks

[King2500]

Do you have an example of a third-party library which uses Symfony console and you profit from the plugin's features (indirectly)?
