PHP is still dominant in CMS space. If you are writing webapps use something else. But if you are working on content then PHP CMS ecosystem is just way ahead of everything else. You almost can't afford to go around it. And I dont mean Wordpress. Modern CMSes like Craft, Kirby, Twill or even things like Bolt, Processwire or Grav... they are pretty great mature platforms for custom content websites and basic CRUD.
Hell with Wordpress (which i hate) and some plugins you get your own self hosted website builder ala Squarespace. PrestaShop and OpenCart are solid ecommerce solutions.
It's too dirty and DIY but it gets job done for most small to medium size businesses.
