I am an avid user of Visual Studio Code and before that Sublime Text. I have recently started using PhpStorm for my Laravel projects and I am really missing the ability to instantly produce a simple HTML 5 boilerplate template by simply typing html + TAB.
Is there anything similar in PhpStorm?

HTML5 Shortcut To try the shortcut, create a new HTML file in Visual Studio Code. Then, start typing html . From the intellisense dropdown, select html:5 and press Enter key. Visual Studio automatically brings the boilerplate HTML5 code to the file.
From the main menu, select File | New, and then select HTML File from the list. PhpStorm creates a stub file based on the HTML file template and opens it in the editor.

! + Tab IIRC.
In IDEA-based IDEs it's called Live Templates. IDE also supports Emmet.
All Live Templates can be found at Settings/Preferences | Editor | Live Templates -- you can modify exiting or add your own (I suggest using own groups for own templates -- less possible hassle with updates and sharing).
Snippets for HTML (plus standard Emmet abbreviations) are located under Zen HTML node.
You can also customise the expand key:
You can also use File Templates ([ 1 ] and [ 2 ]) to make files with some predefined content/structure.
