React is the elephant in the room at this point — and not by chance. It offers a great pattern for declaring UIs, has a decent developer experience, community resources are as abundant as grains of sand on the Earth, and the learning curve is as smooth as it gets IMO. Beyond all that, React has become a "platform" of sorts that serves as the UI piece of more sophisticated tools. It also serves pretty well as an easier entrance to application development targets other than the Web (thanks to the likes of React Native/Expo and Ink).

Besides React, another good one for this year is investigating buildless workflows and UI reusability through Web Component standards.
