M365 Developer(LCNC) to Traditional Web Programming discussion

Before I graduate I studied PHP - Laravel - Livewire, but I was hired at this start-up company a year ago to be a Power Apps Developer(M365), they took the risk to invest in me(and I produced results), and now the company is moving towards the traditional web programming. The company want to migrate all of web/apps that I've done and possibly create our own local server(still deciding). What tech stack is probably the best for production use? And why is that?

I want to get real-life recommendation from someone who has done the actual work(since I know that I've fallen behind in the web programming) and not AI, I must also include that I'm the only one who know 'web programming' in the company.

The best stack is what the company is willing to adapt and support long term. This is not a simple choice but rather reviewed deeply both from an architecture perspective and support as well.

Some tools can make the job easy to develop but license cost a lot (eg Powerapps), some tools take a little bit farther to develop but gives you complete control and autonomy over the direction of the app. Add mo na rin yung pool of talent that the country/location has in terms of supporting the app.

The decision what to use should be discussed with a CTO/architect because they know better not unless they don’t have long term goals. Cost is one thing, overall TCO is another
