Did myself start briefly look at Symfony2, as my development machine 
isn't my local host I got a bit issues with it, as debug stuff seems to 
be meant to run on local host only.
As I have loads of other things to do and I don't need Symfony for any 
work related stuff, so I let it just wait. There are some tutorials on 
their homepage which are worth taking a look at.

For me it's mainly been php.net which has been the main source of 
information, valokuva.org a bit too for imagemagick.

I could recommend KDevelop, there will of course be those who favour 
something else, but I think it's worth to test.
