Of the two options you suggest I would definitely go with React. Unless you have a technical CS background and you enjoy reading through masses of documentation to implement the simplest feature Angular will be a painful experience. Also it uses Typescript which may pose an additional barrier.

Conversely Angular is opinionated, so it's usually fairly clear what the best approach to a problem is, and the solution is usually built-in; whilst React is more flexible and you'll have to research what's considered current best practice...

Thanks for your time. I highly appreciate your advice.

I was so confused to pick one. Now I see so many developers like "React" a lot which I should try first.

Thanks again.
