symfony/cache

If the project contains .ddev/config.yaml, prefix every shell command with ddev (full mapping in the symfony skill's references/ddev.md). Examples target Symfony 7.4, 8.0 and newer — verify the installed version before using newer features.

When to use

You need to cache the result of an expensive computation, API call, or query. Works across processes (Redis, Memcached, filesystem) or in-process (array).

Replaces

• Direct Predis\Client / Redis extension usage for caching
• Direct Memcached extension usage
• apcu_fetch/apcu_store calls
• Ad-hoc file-based cache helpers
