Who is Parthenon for?

Parthenon is for people who want to operate a web company that doesn't focus on the boring tech that everyone has done.

From bootstraps that want to start their business on the right footing to companies that want to improve their tech to large companies that have new projects and don't want to rebuild the same features they've done so many times.

Yes. Parthenon is a bundle that can be used with your existing Symfony application. All the modules are toggable. So if you only want to use one part, you can.

Will I be able to grow with Parthenon?

Parthenon is designed to scale. It has been purposefully designed so that things are able to be replaced as you grow.

We know that as your system scales, there will be parts of Parthenon you'll want to replace with highly custom code, and we designed Parthenon to allow you to do it with ease.

We feel that GPL is a licensing risk can we have another license?
