Being Fossil
-
I have worked as Desktop developer during all my career. I see and hear a lot of new technologies. And I study them myself evenings. For example docker, mvc, .net core, angular js, react... but in my company boss doesn't give web and mobile technologies to me. i feel really bored. i wanted to change my job for last week. but being unexperienced with real projects is really big problem for me. so nobody want to pay money what is my salary now. I feel like i am being fossil. and i can't find good jobs in the future.
Yes, you must get experience with those new technologies.. if only for future job security. Since you don't get to do them at work, do your own projects at home. If you make them open source, or at least make the source visible to everyone, you can use them as an example of your work to a prospective employer. Once you have enough years experience with successful web apps that you're considered a senior developer at that stuff, you should be able to switch jobs.
I live in Oregon, and I'm an engineer.

Do you ever get brand new projects? If so, look into using Electron, which is a desktop HTML/CSS/JS stack. Or better yet, use Python. Python is easy to learn and is a great general purpose cross-platform technology that be used to build just about any type of software.

Besides studying in the evenings, think of a project you can do in your spare time. A website for some group you belong to, or build some NuGet packages from some functionality you can think of, then publish them. Build some utility app that you can sell or distribute, or use as the basis for an article on CodeProject. This will give you some accomplishments that you can then show your boss to prove you are ready for new tasks.

You're already doing the stuff which works as expected and makes sense. Avoid that Web crap at all costs. I do mostly back-end work and the closest I would get to the Web is Web Services.
I second that, although Blazor makes web projects at least palatable, since JavaScript is not required.

been there, had to find a new job to be allowed to branch out, but kinda 'cart before the horse' situation, picked enough up in my spare time that I could justify it in my CV

Welcome to the rest of your life. What is good eventually turns bad; what was bad eventually turns good ... repeat.
The Master said, 'Am I indeed possessed of knowledge? I am not knowing. But if a mean person, who appears quite empty-like, ask anything of me, I set it forth from one end to the other, and exhaust it.' ― Confucian Analects
