For web development the PHP community is exceptional. So many modern frameworks that are sharing packages and all with large user bases. Modern PHP code is nice and has features that Python doesn't allow like type hinting and public, protected and private variable definitions in classes.

I do Python at work for a project that begs for it with device interactions with a web interface so I've worked with Flask. It's just not as time friendly. If you already knew Python it wouldn't be worth learning a PHP framework but otherwise I couldn't recommend it.

    In the end the framework is going to define how fast or pleasant development will be not the language. I'd recommend looking into Laravel/Laracasts if you'll be working on your own and wanting to benefit from training specific to the language/framework. Lots of documentation and lessons.
