I am working on a new codebase as a frontend developer and the backend is in Symfony PHP. I haven't worked with Symfony before but this project seems to be poorly maintained. Help me get a grasp of whether or not this is normal or total garbage.
They are using really outdated dependencies. Symfony itself is in 5.4 and they have 368 deprecations and some critical vulnerabilities.
The project is 10+ years old and there are no software tests at all. Everything is manually tested.
And I did a PHPStorm Error Inspection and it found 650+ Errors, 1,4k warnings and 140k+ weak warnings.
520 Errors are because of "Undefined symbols" though
The project seems to be poorly maintained to me and there are runtime errors and downtimes but the backend team always accuses the hosting service for the downtimes.
