Yeah I guess I’m old. Seems like everything is called “web dev” these days.
I was answering a question somewhere related to something like C/C++ and Operating System level stuff. Someone replied asking where I learned “web dev.” I would consider that general programming, or possibly systems programming, but certainly not “web dev.”
I’m an elitist asshole and I hate that people say “react dev” when really it’s “web dev that uses react”
react devs are not web devs. they’re special
Is this distinction really all that useful?
I suppose you could write a react app that doesn’t use “the web”? But you still might just say they are a react developer.
I think the web part refers to web technologies.

There are also react devs creating the windows 11 start menu.
