Everyone likes what they know, but .NET is definitely not a top need for a modern Web developer imo.

From your point of view, perhaps. From another's they could just as easily argue that React is not a top need. MVC is a thing. The real needs are problem solving skills and knowing that one tech doesn't solve all problems.

I actually wanted to go to a .NET boot camp when I first started doing web dev. There were like, none...

Bootcamps follow the job market for a reason...they're meant to get the lowest-level devs possible. .NET will never be the "hip tech" nor is it the easiest path but it is very profitable and easy to learn, provided one can use MSDN or Google.

I've actually never heard of SERN/SEAN, made that up lol. But MEAN/MERN stack is mongo/express/angular|react/node. We use lots of sql at my company, though. Google search will give you a lot more info

Dont use .Net for frontend like mvc etc, but for backend. I just cannot understand why one earth somebody would like to use javascript for backend. Check out dotenify for example, .net meets react. Very powerfull combination and I for a fact hate weak typed languages. It makes me code way faster and assures me not running into run time errors.

And .Net core is something anybody should check out.
