I sent this last week but it doesn't appear to have posted, can't find it in the online archives, either.
Greetings,
Recently a question regarding editors inside our own internally developed applications came up. Desired feature set includes ability for formatting and spelling check.
I know that in the past CKEditor has been pretty accessible, but their licensing fees are creating some hesitation. What is out there now that folks are using that meet some or all of ATAG? Are QuillJS or Tiny MCE good options?
Best,

Hello,
The Monaco Editor:
https://microsoft.github.io/monaco-editor/
Is pretty good for screen readers.
Thanks,

Hey, Brandon, thanks for that. I've been using VSCode with some success if
I put it in single page view.

Is anyone able to use VSCode's debug functions successfully using JAWS or
other screen readers? I'd enjoy hearing your success or failure stories.

Best,
David

Hello David,
There are many discussions on the ProgramL email list on using VS code with
a screen reader. There is also one of the developers who is very responsive
to VS UI development for screen readers.
The editor itself though is just one component out of the hundreds in VS
code.
Thanks,
