CQRS is often associated with complex, over-engineered systems. But in real-life Symfony apps, it can be a pragmatic tool to structure features, simplify code and separate concerns - when used right.

In this talk, you’ll see:
- how to approach CQRS, how to start implementing it without a hassle,
- when and where CQRS brings real value in Symfony projects,
- how to structure commands, handlers, queries and DTOs in an easy, maintainable way,
- practical integration with Symfony Messenger and validation
- what to avoid: CQRS anti-patterns that create friction, not clarity

I will prove that CQRS can be done right and fast, but also show you how you can expand your existing CQRS setup with new tools and libraries!
