Ask HN: Best Web Application Framework

I'm looking to work on a small side project and am looking for a pretty decent web framework. The alternative is to do everything from scratch and sort of trip my way through everything, but because of the prototype nature of the project I figured a framework might make more sense.

I've been a fan of CakePHP in the past, Django rubbed me the wrong way. Language is not a big deciding factor, wouldn't mind learning some new technologies on the way. Lately been on a Javascript kick so was considering doing something with node.js, is Express any good?

Anyways, not trying to start a flame war, just some honest/direct advice on where to get started!

Thanks, Idan
