Framework of Your choice and why (startrek.website)

Hi, as title says, what framework do you use and why?

I have time to learn something new, but I can’t decide whether to use Svelte or React or any other thing there is.. My current job required PHP, Laravel and Codeigniter, which I kinda mastered but I feel that I need to move on.

So from your perspective and experience, which framework do you prefer? Can you maybe send me your favourite tutorial guy that does not have long boring videos just to have watch time ? (I don’t want to sit around and watch someone do it, I want to do it, videos are just for entertainment)

I want to learn something, but not decided yet what to use. Thanks for any advice.

PHP seems to be getting a lot of positives lately, especially Laravel. Many years ago I moved from PHP to Python and Django to now also use a few other Python frameworks like Flask as well. On the frontend, I've used Ember.js for two big SPA dashboards and also Vue 3 for WebSockets and API-based dashboard. With the dashboards bias, I would not pick anything that doesn't have a good data layer :)

Recently I'm also into static site generators like Astro and 11ty which are kinds of frameworks that generate a static site but the effect can be quite lively edited website through various git based headless CMS systems.
