Just to be clear, jQuery is a library while Angular is a framework.

React ! Of course, this is a personal preference, but I've given Angular a go before I ventured into React and I found the latter simpler yet richer and much more exciting to learn & use. React advertises itself as a "javascript GUI library" and while it is exactly that at its core, its extensive and rapidly-growing ecosystem makes it, in my opinion, the best JS library/framework out there. In comparison, Angular felt very cumbersome and monolithic. As for jQuery, while it remains a useful, helpful tool in some situations, it is nowhere in the same league as React, Angular or Vue (and doesn't pretend to be). Nowadays I wouldn't really bother with learning jQuery as a JS lib, just as I wouldn't pick up PHP as a 'new' programming language when the likes of JS, Python, Ruby etc. are around. Edit: this is assuming you are already very comfortable with vanilla JS ; if you are not, I would focus on mastering that before anything else (and this includes being familiar with ES6, Node & npm, etc.).
