Hey Moni, I highly recommend checking out Elixir and Phoenix — although some of the functional programming ideas take some getting used to, Elixir is super easy to write and run:

Elixir Lang

1. Install Elixir — https://elixir-lang.org/install.html
2. Getting Started with Elixir — https://elixir-lang.org/getting-started/introduction.html

Phoenix Framework

1. Install Phoenix — https://hexdocs.pm/phoenix/installation.html
2. Up and Running with Phoenix — https://hexdocs.pm/phoenix/up_and_running.html

If you have to use php, maybe this can help: https://github.com/durgesh-sahani/restapi-jwt-php-mysql
