What is Sonata ?

The Sonata Project was founded by Thomas Rabaix, a symfony enthusiast. Thomas's work on the Sonata Project is sponsored by his current employer in Paris, France: Ekino.

The goal of the Sonata Project is to provide an e-commerce framework solution based on the Symfony2 framework. Think of it as a toolkit based on Symfony2 components to make building e-commerce sites easy and fun!

The first components released are:

  • Admin Bundle : a bundle to generate robust user friendly administration interfaces
  • Media Bundle : a bundle to handle any kind of media. A media can be a file, an image or a streaming video. The SPI lets you create Providers from scratch if needed, or use/extend existing ones.
  • Page Bundle : a bundle to easily wrap any Symfony action into a user friendly CMS
The complete list of bundles with full documentation is available in the bundles sections.
