Here's how:

<?php
    $current_date = date("Y-m-d");
?>
<input type="date" min="<?php echo $current_date?>">

<p>For example, we will set the min date manually to "2017-11-24"</p>

<input type="date" min="2017-11-24">

You can also set max value.

You can use pure javascript as html5 input does not provide any other way to add the current date unless you specify with the format dd-mm-yyyy.

So here is the javascript code that will fill the input with the current date.

<script>
 document.getElementById('datee').valueAsDate = new Date();
</script>

Hope this helps
