I'm a sighted software developer who had just started work in a school for the blind. Would like advice. (self.Blind)

Hi there. I'm new to this field of software dev and am starting to learn NVDA and the various text reader/speech synthesis applications for starters.
The school I work in is French speaking, and a lot of speech synth stuff is written for the English language, so I will have to adapt and update incomplete rules sets for French.
Being new to this field I still don't know the best sites for information on learning to program language rule sets (such as SimpleSpeech .tdl file writing , clearspeak, and espeak).
Is there a good subreddit for the more technical aspects for accessibility software?
Where do I go from here?

Hmmm. Espeak itself has decent documentation, I think: https://github.com/espeak-ng/espeak-ng
This list might also have more useful information for you: https://www.freelists.org/list/nvda-translations
A lot of us around here are pretty technical, but at least personally, I only speak English. So I'm afraid I have absolutely no idea about internationalization.
