SymfonyDay Chicago 2025: A Celebration of Community

On March 17th, the Symfony community met in Chicago for SymfonyDay Chicago 2025. The event, held on St. Patrick's Day, was both a celebration of Symfony and a moment to support Ryan Weaver in his fight against cancer. It was more than just a conference — it was a gathering around a valued member of the community.
