As someone who is deep into fancy Javascript stuff (React/Redux/Webpack you name it) at this point I would say PHP7!! There is something special about being able to create a helloworld.php and have it sit there up and running with reasonable performance without issues so you can forget about it. Wait until you outgrow it and then consider something else. I regret wasting so much time (and trust me I'm no noob in this) setting up boilerplate dev environments file watchers transpilers hot module reload nginx reverse proxy server-side rendering server REST API layer client side routing graceful reloading blah blah blah. Drop a few php files under Apache and keep marching forward.
