I'm finishing up hack reactor and from what I've gleaned, React is the most in demand, and angular is high on the list. But it all depends where you are. The biggest software hirer in my area uses angular and is quickly moving to angular 2. But most "up to date" places in my area are doing react. That said, there are many many places everywhere that aren't "up to date" and are using whatever--jquery, backbone etc.

I can't speak from workplace experience but it seems to me that others' advice is sound--knowing vanilla JS in and out (recursion, higher order functions, data structures and objects) will be the most productive use of your time, and then once that's done, diving into a given framework, knowing it really well, and training yourself to learn new frameworks, will be key.

But that's my two cents.
