What language would be the best?

GoodMorning just a general question. After reading some articles online I got some doubts, I started studying Java because I wanted to develop an Online program (such as a website that allows the user to get a business plan after answering some specific questions about what his projects are) well in the article it sounded like java wasn't the best to develop such application... I am completely new to the programming word and I would really appreciate if you could give me some advices on what should I study to develop this kind of program, thank you :)

If what you want is to build the server side of a website (back-end), there's many languages to do it:

If you like OOP, there is : C# (.Net MVC, .Net Core), Java More functional programming: Elixir (with Phoenix), Javascript (Node.js & Express)

The commons on the web : PHP (and its many frameworks)

If what you want is just to build the client part (front-end) , no choice : HTML, Javascript, CSS.
