SOMMS

Long story short: I'm an experienced developer who's been 'out-of-the-game' for the past 5 years doing things other than web development.

I am making a mobile app and need to make its web-side counter part...but am overwhelmed by the sheer number of web frameworks out there. Is Rails still the king? I see a lot of love for Node. Also...lots of PHP based stacks out there. Spring boot?

Things I am looking for in a framework: -authentication plug-in -basic CRUD -basic NOSQL -ability to attache images -beautification (like Bootstrap...something other than stock controls) -an active community and/or documentation where I can go for help

Bonus: I like the idea of single page web-apps like Angular or React. Is there a back-end framework that works particularly well with these?

Thanks,

PS-yes I've googled this question but honestly it yielded more questions than answers!
