Definitely dive right into React. I haven’t used jQuery in years, and most people I work with haven’t either. There’s many ways to get around needing to use jQuery, since modern JS allows you much of the same functionality once you have a fair grasp of the language.
And React involves use of a virtual DOM. jQuery as I understand it uses the literal DOM in the browser, so both may end up conflicting if you attempted to actually use jQuery with React today.

That was a great advice!
Most of my seniors advice me as same as you mention in the comment❤️

Only learn jquery if you absolutely need to (like if your employer requires it)
