I've had a similar journey as yours but I'm more of a back-end/api developer now. I've moved to c# and been using .net core for most of my work. the developer experience has been unparalleled with visual studio and I find it extremely disturbing to even look at my old php code nowadays. if you're going to build large systems that freely evolves without much hassle, have a look at vertical slice architecture. it has been a huge a game changer for me. if interested, have a look at this starter template project I made. good luck with your new project!

Thanks! I'm not familiarized with "Vertical Slice Architecture", the name sounds like something I'd like =D
this is a c# video but I believe the principles can be applied anywhere: youtu.be/Fn1IKJ-ZDOk
