I have an AVITA Clarus that I purchased on clearance a few months ago. It’s been a great machine for what it is, and is very well supported in Manjaro (an Arch derivative). I paid ~$175 for it, and it’s approximately on par with the MacBook Air I had a couple of years ago. Stats are i5@3.2Ghz, 8GB RAM, 128GB SSD, integrated graphics. It’s good enough for back-end web development provided I offload the “heavy” stuff to a hosted platform somewhere - which is generally how I develop anyhow, as I often do so from an iPad Pro LTE.
