The most important JS libraries I'd recommend are React, Next.js, and Express.js for fullstack development.

What do you think about vue ?

We use Vue at my company, but we usually hire engineers with React experience, because there are a lot more of them and they can pick up Vue easily. That's how I joined. I was a full-stack engineer with React experience.

Vue seems like it might be a bit easier to start with than React, but it's true that there are a lot more React jobs, and if you learn React, you might get hired to do Vue anyway!

If doesn't really matter of it's Vue or react or angular or svelte or...

I'd recommend react simply because it's so wide spread that there's a fair chance you'll run into it sooner or later. If you're unfamiliar with it you're only limiting your own employability. I'm not saying "become a react expert" but it certainly helps being somewhat familiar with its concepts.
