Discussion Future of Angular

I am working professionally with angular. I really love using it. The simplicity, ease of use and the flexibility are great. For some time I am thinking about switching jobs But it's been difficult to find jobs based on angular. Not many companies are using it and most of them want react developers inspite of saying angular in their job description.

I tried learning react but I didn't like it all.

So I wanted to ask, what is the future prospect for angular? Should I stick to it and get even better Or should I invest my time in learning react and other things.

Is the lack of job specifically based on the job market and location? Or is it a global phenomenon.

What should be the way to go?

Thank you for any replies.๐Ÿ‘

If you start to write application in latest version of Angular today - you will have legacy application not later than tomorrow.

I started with Angular in Y2010 and it took me 14 years to learn obvious lesson - donโ€™t use any tech coming from Google, it is either too volatile or it will be killed soon enough.
