[Career Advice] 6 years in frontend (React / React Native) - confused about future

I’m a software developer with around 6 years of experience in frontend. Mostly worked with React.js and React Native.

But lately I’ve been feeling a bit confused. Frontend world is changing really fast — AI tools, low-code platforms, new frameworks every few months — and I’m starting to worry if just sticking to frontend is enough for the future.

I’m also planning to switch jobs in the next 6 months, so I want to use this time to upskill myself.

Which area should I explore next to stay relevant and future-proof? Also, which specific tech should I start learning?
