I recommend the empirical approach to answering this question. The advent of modern web technologies and development techniques --- HTML5, CSS3, and Jquery, along with Jade, LESS and CoffeeScript -- means that you can create anything from a glorified Word document all the way to a seriously performant and important app. You will eventually find out exactly how technical you are by finding out how much time you spend creating 'content' (hereinafter, nontechnical content; writing, etc.) versus code. I have lived on both sides of the tech/humanities divide, at various times in my life, and have swung like a pendulum between code and art, and there is beauty in value in all of it. The important thing is to stop asking questions that set up false dichotomies that, like a chalk circle around a chicken, limit you with an idea.
