Webdev can be impactful. It's really a matter of thr domain. Some of my most impactful work work was webdev in health IT. Some of the stuff I did across jobs in order of when I remember: - Validate covid positive/negative status for reentry into various nations - Dynamic reports that allowed hospitals to understand how in or out of compliance with regulations they were. - Take the data underlying those reports and submitting them to thr government in order to continue funding for the hospital - Integrating various health insurance APIs into a system to vastly speed up approvals for surgeries (we're talking from days down to minutes) - Honestly, every battle I've waged and won around accessibility That's just off the cuff. I really enjoyed my time in health IT. The technology and regulatory challenges made for interesting problems, and it was nice to understand immediately the good I was doing. It's easy to understand the good in an assignment like, "Identify all the tired doctors/nurses/staff based on this data and flag them for forced time off"
