Hello, Everyone, I'm confused about JavaScript, CSS,

Angular, React, Bootstrap both are the best but which one is the best combination with C# MVC .NET,

or pure JavaScript, CSS is the best for the MVC project?

I would suggest to go based on skill. I would prefer Angular with .NET. It will make easier to work with and take advantages of front-end framework.

See,
The world is moving towards client-side frameworks.
why do you think Microsoft launched ASP.NET Core Blazor when they already had ASP.NET MVC and ASP.NET Core MVC?
The sole reason is to be in the market and to provide single-page application frameworks like Angular/React etc.

So, you have two choices
1. Jquery+CSS3+Bootstrap/Kendo UI (Client-Side) + ASP.NET MVC/ ASP.NET Core MVC (Server Side)

Or

2. (Angular/React + Angular Material/Bootstrap)==(Client-side)+ ASP.NET Web API/ ASP.NET Core Web API (Server Side)

or
3. Blazor + ASP.NET Core API

the second option is more on-demand, all new projects are built using one client-side language like angular or react and one API.
It is very obvious though that all apps are now built for all platforms like web, android, and IOS, so API is a must, when you have the API then why will you use MVC and not angular / react?

So, My final suggestion will be to learn Angular+ASP.NET Core API. (ASP.NET Core API is no different from MVC, so automatically you will learn the MVC concepts, the View in MVC is anyway pure HTML)

To select the combination is really a debatable, we need to consider lot of aspects with MVC architecture. For sure we will use Javascript, CSS, Bootstrat. For React and Angular you can go through the following article link for better understanding.

It depends on many factors such as the application complexity, size, resource availability, skill set, targeted audience, ... Having said that, in my experience, i have seen the below combination works for many use cases. 1) Angular ( or React ) + Web API 2) jQuery + MVC . The first one enables you build a microservice based SPA application, where as the second one lets you build a Multi-page application (although you can still build SPA with jQuery, it wont be a pure MVVM architecture ). Also, you might want to take a look at Blazor as well
