Before you decide
Demand is only one input
Learning effort
Months
Expect a few months of regular practice, ideally on a real project, before you can use it at work.
Transferability
Moderate
Carries over to several related roles.
Rising ads don’t mean you should learn this.
Your interests, the time you have and what people in the work tell you matter more. Effort and transferability are editorial estimates, not measurements.
