Javascript Learning From a Blindness Perspective

Hi,
I'm unsure how to ask this, so here goes. I'm getting started learning JavaScript and would like to know how to set up my environment and understand how to use it from a keyboard user and screen reader user perspective. I have the Firefox Development tools. I'm reading Elegant Javascript. The book starts off by using console.log to show output, when it is teaching the language. Formerly, I have made web pages and embedded JavaScript or script tags. I found the page of keyboard shortcuts to the Firefox Development tools. Where else woud be a good place to understand how the tools work. If there are more accessible development tools for JavaScript, I'm good with using them.

Thanks.

Jim
