To install generator-grunt-symfony from npm, run:

npm install -g generator-grunt-symfony

Finally, initiate the generator:

yo grunt-symfony

The browsersync server uses it's own symfony environment to prevent asset loading conflicts with the environment loaded via apache2.

The directory structure is based on the Symfony Best Practices

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

• All production assets are located in the web folder.

Run grunt build to compile, optimize and rev your assets for production.

Yeoman has a heart of gold. He's a person with feelings and opinions, but he's very easy to work with. If you think he's too opinionated, he can be easily convinced.
