Amanda, I had a brief discussion with jetbrains representatives about accessibility of pyCharm a little while ago, and, they said they were trying to put accessibility in place, but, don't think too much had taken place/changed - but, signed and shared this petition in any case, just in case.

I don't know that anyone at Jetbrains reads anything on chanvge.org,
but I signed it. Most of the time when I hear 'blind' and 'IDE' in the
same statement, it is usually an unhappy story where sighted
colleagues pick an IDE that turns out to be inaccessible, since most
of them are.

Hey all,
As you know, Jetbrains created several popular and inteligente IDEs for
several programming languages such as intellij for java, pycharm for python
and ...
I have been reporting several accessibility issues of intellij, but the
process of reporting and solving these issues is very slow and takes a lot
of time to make IDE usable for our jobs, I created a petition to help
accelerate this process.
If you sign this, you help a lot as a member of blind community and having
these great tools in our toolbox can make our jobs better, and give us more
confidence in our jobs.
It can really save our jobs!
Please sign and share.
Your contributions can make a big difference.

Thanks in advance.
