Which frameworks/languages use to build decent website? [closed]

So as my final uni project I have chosen to program a website which will include:

  • databse (probably MySQL),

  • register and login system with validation,

  • real-time notification system,

  • some charts probably with chart js.

I’ve been studying PHP for a while and it won’t be difficult to do the task but as I heard it’s better to use frameworks insted of raw PHP these days. I decided to learn at least one for now and make my project using MVC pattern (and to do it properly I probably need some framework like Laravel?or not?).

So here’s my question: is it better to stick to raw PHP, learn and use basic Laravel (for MVC pattern and better code organization) or maybe learn and use something else like Node js with Express? Thanks for the answers in advance 🙂
