In this article DevJobsScanner is going to show which Frontend Framework has more demand and which Frontend Framework is the best paid by real job offers. DevJobsScanner has analyzed roughly ~156k frontend jobs from 01-Jan-2025 to 31-Dec-2025 (12 months). All these jobs are from trusted sites like Linkedin, Glassdoor, RemoteOk, Dice and many others.
Let’s see what the data tells us 👇
Which is the Most Demanded Frontend Framework?
After analyzing for 12 months around ~156k frontend job offers, we found that React is the most demanded frontend framework with a total of 84k job offers counted. Angular sits in second place, with a total of 56k offers. In third position we found Vue, with 13k offers. "Others" represents all other frontend frameworks, like Svelte, Solid.js, Alpine, Backbone, Lit... Despite some of them being quite popular right now, the real job offers demand is really low.
Below we can see the percentage of frontend job offers for each frontend framework:
In the above chart we can see that:
- ~54% of frontend jobs offers choose React.
- ~36% of frontend jobs offers choose Angular.
- ~8% of frontend jobs offers choose Vue.
- ~2% of frontend jobs choose another frontend framework.
Note: This data represents all the frontend job offers that required a frontend framework. There is some small percentage of frontend job offers that do not require any frontend framework that are not in this dataset.
How has Frontend Framework demand changed from 2022 to 2025?
After analyzing these charts, we can determine that React continues to dominate the frontend job market, maintaining a stable share of around 50–60%. Meanwhile, Angular has held a steady second place, sitting around 35-40% demand throughout 2025. Vue remains a niche player, holding a steady but small presence of around 8-10%, while alternative frameworks have yet to gain significant traction.
Is there any difference in Frontend Framework demand by countries?
What happens if we split those frontend framework job offers by countries? Can it make a noticeable difference? In the chart below we have subdivided the frontend job offers by country.
While in the majority of countries there is an expected React dominance, there are some European countries that do not follow this behavior. Switzerland, France, and Belgium are such examples, with a higher percentage of Angular job opportunities compared to React. In Switzerland, Angular jobs represent 57% of the frontend jobs, the strongest Angular lean of any country in our dataset. Spain and Italy are the closest contests, with React and Angular splitting their markets almost evenly at around 47% and 46% respectively. Vue, while present everywhere, does not lead in any single country, holding around 10% even in its strongest markets.
Which Frontend Framework has more Junior vs Senior vs Lead/Architect roles?
The above chart shows the number of Junior, Senior and Lead/Architect roles for each frontend framework (Note that jobs that didn't have any of those words where discarded). We apparently see no much difference in React and Vue, having the majority of jobs tagged as "Senior". But it is not the same in Angular job offers, where ~38% of Angular jobs (that had one of the keywords Junior, Senior or Lead/Architect) had the keyword Lead or Architect. It is hard to make assumptions on why this happens on Angular job offers, but this may be due to angular having larger apps that may require Lead or Architect profiles, or basically something within the community that tends to specify the jobs as Lead or Architect more frequently.
Which is the highest paying Frontend Framework?
In a shift from previous years, Angular is now the highest paid major frontend framework with an average salary of $115k per year. Vue and React follow closely, with annual salaries of $110k and $108k, respectively. The three frameworks now sit within a tight band, a noticeable change from prior years when React led the pack.
It's important to note that this salary study is based solely on jobs from the United States. This is due to the significant variation in salaries between countries and the fact that DevJobsScanner has a substantial number of jobs from the US

Summary
It is evident that in 2025, React dominates the frontend framework market, accounting for approximately 54% of all frontend job offers that specify a frontend framework requirement.
That being said, Angular also has a significant share of job offerings, with 36% of frontend positions requiring knowledge of Angular. On top of that, Angular edged out the other major frameworks on pay this year, with an average annual salary of $115k. Combined with its strong presence across European markets like Switzerland, France and Belgium, Angular could be a very viable option. It potentially offers less competition than React but still maintains a high volume of job opportunities. These insights could be valuable for those embarking on a career as a frontend developer.
About Vue, it is a great framework and enjoys popularity, but the job market for Vue is comparatively smaller. Starting with Vue as the primary frontend framework might not be advisable; instead, beginning with React or Angular and then transitioning to Vue if necessary would be a more strategic approach.
