Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

Propel2 uses the following Symfony2 Components:

- [Console](https://github.com/symfony/Console)
- [Yaml](https://github.com/symfony/Yaml)
- [Finder](https://github.com/symfony/Finder)
- [Validator](https://github.com/symfony/Validator)
- [Filesystem](https://github.com/symfony/Filesystem)

Propel2 also relies on [**Composer**](https://github.com/composer/composer) to manage dependencies but you also can use [ClassLoader](https://github.com/symfony/ClassLoader) (see the `autoload.php.dist` file for instance).

Propel2 is only supported on PHP 5.5 and up.
