Php and Laravel
I also really appreciate FakerPHP for how easy it is to generate realistic fake values.

I`ve seen so many posts and comments about Laravel and how it has made PHP a modern choice for webdev. As someone who has written many small apps in PHP, I might dive into it and finally see what that Laravel thing is all about.
I'm currently using Laravel at work. It's very opinionated, and some folks say it uses anti-patterns with regards to its use of facades. That being said my last job was C#/.Net and I am so much more productive with Laravel. It really allows you to develop quickly and I haven't yet bitten by any of the "anti-patterns". If you give it a shot I'd recommend just using Laravel Sail as, if you already have docker installed…
It is and it isn't. It does opinionated ways of doing things. But IMO what makes it so great is just how easy it is to opt out of the opinions you don't like. Facades are an excellent example of this: don't want to use them? Well, you don't have to (and IMO a really big app that may be a good choice - in a small app it likely won't matter and you might as well use them).
My own ( c# ). It's not opensource yet, monetizing it first. Full DDD, it was a refactor during COVID-19 for my ecommerce.

I'm using DDD, so DDD knowledge is a requirement to navigate this…
Now lets see Paul Allen's screenshots of the directory structure of his codebase.
Redis is a popular answer for C, and I agree.

To me, "anti-pattern" has the same bogus meaning as "clean code"
That's an interesting take! I'm still early in my career and I ask with genuine curiosity, but why do you think "clean code" has a bogus meaning?
"Reasonably readable" is what I strive for nowadays, and a key aspect is that I no longer think there is an objective measure for it. It depends on the team/company you're in, and its important to keep in mind that the goal is to effectively communicate the program to them.
Each language has different ways that may lend itself as part of this shaping, but I like being able to think of this as something to look for when reading and strive for when writing, irrespective of the language at-hand.
