Location and Place

What is the Open Stage?
Once a month, we want to open our open stage on Discord to give you and us the opportunity to present topics, give presentations (from very short to really long), start discussions, and exchange ideas in a completely uncomplicated way and without any major pressure.
Get started as a speaker, learn new things or see what we are up to.
We invite you to:
Bring a topic you’re working on
Present something small or big
Join a discussion
Share a challenge you’re facing
Show your contributions
Suggest a new community activity
We aim to create an open, kind, and supportive stage for everyone.
Share your ideas
Session Types Talk (20–30 min) Deep dive: demos, architecture, features, workflows, learnings.
Tiny Talk (5 min, beginner-friendly) Quick insight: bug fix, first contribution, helpful command, small change, open question.
Discussion (10–15 min) Guided conversation on plugin structure, testing, deployment, productivity, and community ideas.

Soner Sayakci: Installing Symfony with Symfony using the browser
Composer is essential for distributing Symfony apps, but its CLI can be a hurdle for end users. What if installation was as simple as uploading one file and opening it in the browser? This talk shows how we package Symfony apps into a single PHP file with a full web-based installer.

2025 Peak Season Retrospective: The Good, the Bad, and the Timeouts
A relaxed roundtable where Shopware, maxcluster, Heptacom (and you) compare notes on Black Friday chaos, Q4 traffic tsunamis and holiday season surprises. What worked in 2025? What absolutely didn’t? And how do we prepare smarter for 2026?
