If you haven't created a database, you can create it with doctrine:

php ./bin/console doctrine:database:create
  • make checkdb - prints the raw sql queries to be executed
  • make syncdb - executes the queries to sync the database with its entities

Run Project

make dev-server

(Note: This make recipe uses the Symfony binary so it may not work if you're using another server like Apache/NgInx to serve your files. Installing the binary is necessary to use this recipe)
