Plus ça change! I started out in the "new media" industry in the late 90s and worked with a variety of "web designers" who didn't know how to code HTML or work with Web technologies at all, let alone upload anything. They had a good idea of the limitations but broadly "designed" things and handed them off to programmers to actually implement.
Lest anyone doesn't believe me, there was a BBC drama called Attachments which had a lot of London new media sceneish stuff going on in it and their team worked in a very similar way to real ones I was on: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2rEFvlKA3g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2rEFvlKA3g (NSFW as most post-watershed shows in 2000 were..)
