Another project I'm following, which is very young is this:

https://redwoodjs.com/

It is worth looking into their discussions, issues and so on, doing the tutorial and looking at the roadmap if you are interested in this kind of thing. Very opinionated and they embrace a component based approach with React, GraphQL and so on, while providing useful code generation.

Also this CMS project does a lot of things really well too:

https://strapi.io/

Also pretty young but at a stage where you can use it for real things. Also code generation, GraphQL support and very modular.

But if we're pragmatic, there is still nothing that beats shared hosting LAMP stacks currently if you need a CMS and/or custom backend for a web-app in terms of operational overhead and cost. And it is not like the PHP community was sleeping either. For Rails specifically: It introduced a paradigm shift but both the Python and PHP world caught up very quickly. I don't see a big enough benefit of using either of those three except for the lower operational cost of PHP.

So I agree with your prediction, but we are not quite there yet, or at least not for small to medium projects.
