What you'll be learning

Tip: This course is built on Symfony 3, but most of the concepts apply just fine to Symfony 4.

We already learned all the form basics. But, controlling how you render your forms? That's a huge and super-fun topic all on its own. Themes! Form variables! Rainbows! Let's go!

Creating your own form theme
Controller form variables
Using form variables in your theme
Rendering a field 100% by hand
Controller variables in your form type
Adding a "help" text system that renders for all fields
Leveraging a FormTypeExtension to tweak any field in your system
Customizing how a single field renders

This stuff is black magic: learn these fundamentals, and you'll be unstoppable!
