"Buy one, get one free" is a marketing tactic that works even though, in actual fact, two items are being sold. There has been a lot of interest in Symfony components since the decision was taken to build Drupal 8 on them. However, even in a vanilla installation, there are some "hidden" components that Composer pulls in as a dependency and we can leverage them for free without doing much work. Some other components are used sparingly and we can freely apply them to different situations.

In this session we will learn about these components waiting to be exploited in innovative ways.
