I am currently using $1 for python learning and Atom as an editor under ubuntu linux. I am 20/400 in my better eye so I am not total vision loss. I use two monitors with the right monitor being a screen magnifier of the left and then of course all text setup large and high contrast.

The web dev stuff on freecodecamp was all text based and easy to use with accessibility stuff. The python course is a video lecture so youre stuck with what the instructor has chosen for the video. Luckily so far it is white text on black screen and all very large font so Ive been able to make it work.

Hello everyone. To the OP, if you do decide to begin coding, make sure to set punctuation to the highest level. This will read out all brackets and code blockes, makes my life a litttle easier sometimes.

Anyone know a good code editor that works with Orca under Ubuntu20.04? Thanks.

Most text-based resources will work fine for you as an NVDA user. Codecademy recently became accessible and their Intro to Python 2 is free, although Python 2 is end of life, so it should really only be used to see if you like the format enough to pay for it.
Any text-based resource claiming to teach Python 3 should be good at this point. For your editor, you can use either Vs Code if you are ok with a bit of setup, or Notepad/notepad++ and the commandline if not.

Let me know if you need more tips, I teach this stuff for a semi-living. That I do charge for, but getting you off the ground I don't mind committing some free time for :)

Also interested, recently been diagnosed severely visualy impaird and have studied computing for 6 years, work as a tech support at the moment. I'm not able to sit in front of screens for hours and hours anymore without getting headaches. Would love to hear of the aids available for learning programming
