If you're sitting in front of the keyboard, inputting instructions and running the resulting programs, yes you are still a coder. You're just move another layer up on the stack. The same type of argument has been made for decades -- when coders wrote in ASM, folks would ask "are you still a coder when you use that fancy C to make all that low-level ASM obsolete?". Etc etc.
