Hi,
I'm happy to report here that I went through the presentation and got VSCode
Insider working with some plug-ins, but not Python just yet. At the time I am
interested in using VSCode to make it easier to work with my new site, which is
built using the static site generator called Hugo. I also used VSCode with
GitHub. I am slowly learning my away around the basics, and things have been
smooth for the most part. Right now, some of my difficulty is because of
getting used to the environment and that makes it difficult to say much about
fine-tuning accessibility.
This next point is purely personal. I find it very difficult when documentation
assumes you know things, and I am less technical than a lot of people, so I was
stressed out by the documentation. I plan on keeping very basic notes for
myself. This is how I learn. If I write it down, it sticks.
Thanks.
Jim

Hello all,
I think it was already cross-posted to this list, but for anyone who needs a
hand getting started with VS Code, I did a walkthrough for screen reader users
on Zoom yesterday. The archive of that can be found here:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/ypax4q266v1ur2h/VS%20Code%20Walkthrough.mp3?dl=0
I use JavaScript in the recording, but we're only doing very simple coding.
Most of it is just explaining why you might want to use VS Code, how to get
started with it etc.
As for designing GUIs, no, you don't necessarily need a forms designer-like
tool for something like WXPython. AFAIK that toolkit is code-first.

Yeh,
Stick to basics, like notepad++, Ed Sharp or PFE.
BTW, I haven't tried visual studio code yet. could someone give me
some details on how to get it up and running with Python?

Unfortunately not, though it's less of an issue than one might think

Personally my optimal environment consists of the indentNav NVDA
add-on for simplified code navigation, a decent text editor
(notepad2 or notepad++), and an open console when I'm ready to test.
Python's interpreted nature makes churning out stable code a breeze,
allowing you to test language specific features and step through
your program in realtime.
If you decide an IDE is a must have, visual studio code is probably
the way to go, providing more features than most devs have any
reason to need without the price tag or overhead offered by other VS
additions.
Out of curiosity, what is your level of experience? What sort of
environments, if any, have you found to be effective in the past?
Should be easy to get you comfortably set up and ready to go.

best environment for writing code?
