Thank you. Well I have a couple of reasons - one is the remaining relevant
in case I need/want to change jobs, and the second is that I've done lots
of desk top work and I need a new challenge away from the desktop
programming. I've been playing with embedded/electronics/iot in my hobbies
for then past  year and the web ties up with it really well. So bit of both
really challenge and skills to sell.

In terms of cash - I have good amount of big business exp in
BI/Analytics/Cubes etc, but frankly been there and got the tshirt but
wouldn't want to retire there :-) But thanks for the recommendations.

Melb market is also filled with Dynamics and Sitecore work.

But as .net dude said JS is where it's all at. I found it very hard to get
work in Melb with no Angular or React experience.

"Full stack" they usually want Angular or React, css, webapi, entity
framework, sql server.

Hey Preet,

Generally, Azure and JS frameworks like React and Angular is where "it" is
mostly at these days as far as general .net wed dev goes. It also depends
on location from my experience. I'm not familiar with the Auckland market
at all. In Melbourne most of the maintenance work is in mvc, very little if
any webforms, LOTS of Angular/React/whatever JS framework. Same for Sydney.
Canberra is mostly webforms and mvc from what I know (govt is usually a bit
behind), Qld and WA I am not sure about.

If you're wanting to get back into web dev I would ask you why. Not joking.
:) If your reason is because you want to update and get back into it I'd
say go hard on Javascript. If you're after money I'd say forget all that
and get into Salesforce lol. Kidding. Well not really. As I said earlier
you need to know your market too if you're wanting to be valuable
(hireable).

Cheers

Hi team,

Got Friday OT question for you all.  I started .net with the beta and used
aspx all those years ago. I stayed with ASPX until about 2007 but about
then I moved into doing more desktop development. I'd really like to dust
off and polish my web dev skills but there seems to be a plethora of things
that have sort of past me by Azure, Javascript, Angular (?) to name a few.

I know that fair few of you do web dev so i was wondering what you could
advise as the must have skills today!

Just to give you a history, from 2007 I did WCF/WF & WPF type stuff, from
2010 I did more Cubes and SSRS BI stuff and for the past couple of years
I've been doing pure legacy desktop C++/CLI/.Net so not a lot of webbie
stuff at all :-)
