If you know javascript really well, then it's not that important if your code is in react, angular or vue. I've been doing full stack web development for 16 years. I learned react in a week then with that knowledge i also mostly understood how angular and vue works, because it follows the same principle of components and state.

Learn javascript really well, and the rest will follow along. If you focus too much on a specific stack, and knowing that these stacks evolve over time, it's also detrimental because it will be hard to adapt since you know the quirks of one particular framework, instead of understanding the over-arching paradigm.
