    If you are interested in frontend development then start with React - it essentially just handles the UI layer without data binding. The Getting Started guide will get you up and running in a couple of hours. React is really quite simple and you will need to learn some patterns to create complexity. It integrates with other frameworks seamlessly which gives it great flexibility.

    Vue is slightly more complex than React - it provides the v-model directive that makes two-way binding possible. Vue overlaps both React and Angular in terms of its functionality so think of it as a stepping stone between the two.

    Angular has the steepest learning curve - it also requires you to learn TypeScript. The biggest frustration with Angular is the fact that there are breaking changes between release versions of the framework. If you know Angular then adopting the other frameworks will not be a problem - you might not like them as much though because you'll have been indoctrinated into the "Angular way".
