Directory structure

The directory structure is based on the Symfony Best Practices

Dev

• Assets are located in app/Resources/public
• Templates can be found in app/Resources/views

Production

• All production assets are located in the web folder.
• Run grunt build or gulp build to compile, optimize and rev your assets for production.
