I just started learning Python and am using Notepad++ with NVDA.  The tabs
are driving me crazy. I would like to know how you guys manage the tab
indentations. I am spending a lot of time fixing those indentation errors.
Thanks,

EdSharp is 100% accessible - developer, Jamal Mazrui might still be on
this list himself, but, no, no auto-complete, but, it does offer a couple
of code-block navigation commands, etc. that I enjoy using at times - it
was my primary code-editing environment for a very long time, and, still
switch between it and VS code quite often at the moment.

Would definitely not really recommend pyCharm - just posted about it's
form of accessibility last week, and, not really up to standard.


Would, in other words, also agree with starting off with a form of
programmer's text editor, like notepad++, edSharp, and then, maybe later
on VS code, but, if you're literally just starting with learning
something like python you will probably do better to, initially, just
use something like notepad++, but, there, bear in mind that I think it's
more compatible with NVDA, as opposed to jaws - but, not 100% sure if
that's still true, since I have literally not used jaws for more than
very occasional testing for a very long time now.

Chris,

My understanding is that while PyCharm may have some
accessibility-related features, it has a way to go. Others may know
more and hopefully they'll chime in. The PyCharm accessibility page is
here in case you'd like to give it a try:
https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/accessibility.html

I'd recommend Notepad++, https://notepad-plus-plus.org. This is more
of
a traditional text editor.

Another option would be Visual Studio Code,
https://code.visualstudio.com/. This has a much
steeper learning curve but mastering it now could really pay off
later.

hello list,
Could anyone recommend a text editor for a complete beginner? I am
just beginning my journey into coding and I've gathered together some
books on beginning coding with python. One of the books I have begun
Reading  recommends an IDE called Pye Charm. is this a good Choice for
an environment to start working with python using a screen reader? any
tips for a Newby are much appreciated. Many thanks.
