Form without tables

Using templates in Symfony framework. (Lesson 7. Twig)
Using templates in Symfony framework can be done in several ways. First, you can use PHP templates. But the preferred option is to use the Twig template engine (by default).

Setting PHP timezone in php.ini
During the work with Symfony framework, I received the following warning:
Warning: date_default_timezone_get(): It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected the timezone 'UTC' for now, but please set date.timezone to select your timezone. in /var/www/symfony/app/cache/prod/classes.php on line 5009
In fact, there is nothing to worry about or unusual - this was caused by updating PHP to version 5.4, and since the new version was installed next to the old one with new configs, it was necessary to configure the PHP timezone in php.ini again. First, we need to find out which timezone we are in. More precisely, how it should be specified in the PHP config.
Routing in the Symfony framework (Lesson 6: Routing)
After learning how to create controllers (here), it is important to understand how a user can invoke a controller and how to work with it.
The Symfony framework has a special feature called routing system. In yii framework , for example, routing is determined by the file structure of the application by default (although you can still use a routing system with the necessary tools). However, in Symfony framework, you have to define the routing manually (excluding the basic routing created by the bundle generator).
