DevOps enables organizations to deliver applications to their users with agility. Continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines are an important component of DevOps. They automate the processes for developing and deploying applications automatically. 

In this course, you will take a project-based approach to learning about some of the most popular CI/CD pipelines. You will start by learning how to create a PHP application using the Symfony framework, and add some features to the skeletal code. Then, you’ll learn to deploy it to AWS Elastic Beanstalk. Next, you will learn to automate the build and deployment steps using GitHub Actions, Bitbucket, GitLab, and AWS CI/CD pipelines.

At the end of the course, you will have knowledge of working with some of the most popular CI/CD pipelines. You’ll know the best practices of working with authentication secrets for each of these pipelines and be able to deploy any web application to AWS Elastic Beanstalk using any of these CI/CD pipelines.

Mastering Web Application Deployment Using CI/CD Pipelines

In this lesson, we'll check if our terminal is ready for our Symfony project and then create a Symfony project.

# Check if the system is ready

Now, we’ll check if our Linux system is ready for a Symfony installation. We can run the following command to check:
```
symfony check:requirements
```

This command should return:
```                                              
[OK]                                         
Your system is ready to run Symfony projects                                      
```

# Install and set up Git

We also need to set up Git; otherwise, creating the Symfony project will cause errors. This is because Symfony tracks changes through Git. 

**Git** is a distributed version control system for managing and tracking changes to software source code over time. It allows developers to save and keep track of different versions of their code, making it easier to manage and collaborate on software projects.

We can install Git by running the following command in the terminal below:
```
sudo apt install -y git-all
```
The sudo password is `educativecourse`.

Then, we need to configure Git user details. These commands set the user who will save and commit lines of code. We'll fix the user email to `educativestudent@educative.io` and the username to `educativestudent` for now. We can change this later.
```
git config --global user.email "educativestudent@educative.io"
git config --global user.name "educativestudent"
```

# Create a Symfony project

Now, we can create a Symfony project by running the command given below. This command will create a folder named `my_project_directory` and a Symfony web application via Composer.
```
symfony new my_project_directory --version="6.1.*" --webapp
```

The success message will look like so:
```
 [OK] Your project is now ready in /home/educative/my_project_directory_
```

Well done on creating a Symfony project!
