Vanilla php + html5up + sqlite3.

Everyone else here is trying to be stylish and fancy.

Your customers don't care what language it's in or whether the code is beautiful.

No cutting edge incomplete frameworks, convoluted tooling, piles of inaccurate documentation to read, inexplicable cryptic error messages with a bunch of incorrect solutions on stack overflow, or other incompetently over engineered bullshit.

Just go as vanilla, basic, and standard as possible.

True speed comes when you don't have to deal with other people's bugs and poorly designed mistakes.

Don't rely on code written by flocks of people you'd never hire in a million years.
