My first advice would be: If possible use your time to learn React / Redux. As you yourself said, this is what the market is looking for. This will increase your chances of being successful. Although this seems like a bad idea because languages and technologies change, but you need it NOW, and NOW and what the market wants.
2 - Prepare your linkedin and set up a curriculum that will understand what you want at this point in your career, an idea would be in the summary part of what you are looking for to return to the area.
3 - Look for freelance jobs to get money and get some experience, this is a time to prepare your portfolio. There are platforms that provide this support.
4 - Make as many interviews as you can, but do with the thought of this re-learning to be interviewed. Study about selective processes, and celebrate failures. You probably will not be hired at the first chance.
