Brian,

An excellent post and fully agree with what you have said. I would even take it to the next level that tools haven't been design yet to permit someone with a vision impairedment to achieve their full protentual in front end development. I recall VB6 where the scripts with Jaws would give you pixcel positioning that assisted you in laying out a form (dialog). This same concept can be applied. With the introduction of AI and some smart computer design, I feel this is possible if someone had the time, resource and money.

Just wish I had the forma, money as I would like to research this to see if it possible.
