It's a little light on details.

Is this related to the symphony framework in any way, or is it just a naming coincidence?

Name collision I believe, there's a russian language demo on youtube. It seems to me as a tiny fltk based WM to fit the current UX trends without having a "heavy" DE like Gnome3.

The PHP framework is Symfony, not Symphony.

It is a coincidence. SymphonyOS pre-dates the Symfony framework by almost a year. There are several projects out there in different spaces that are named Symphony
