Progressing from CodeIgniter to Symfony - RajeevElzrando - 12-04-2022

I'm one of those "old school" PHP coders who has used CI3 framework throughout to develop web apps for my clients and now I'm evaluating the idea of progressing to Symfony.

I'd like to know what extra does Symfony bring to table here? There is built-in functionality for things like database abstraction, URL routing, session handling, pagination, custom helpers and libraries, etc. all integrated into one place.

Are there any good Symfony components/packages available on packagist for handling these routine tasks better? What are they and what's a good approach to transition my journey here? Also trivia things like which Symfony version is better will be good to know.
