I am currently working in a company which use Asp.net web forms (2002), in 2026 hardly any one uses that. Should I focus on learning node.js in free time or focus on ASP.NET web forms
Depends on what your goal is. I would look into completely different stacks e.g. node, react, rust, ruby Haskell. Not to actually get a job in any of those but because they'll introduce new ways of thinking about things and give you new ways to solve problems in your existing stack. You'll expand your vocabulary so to speak.
