I'm looking for accessible <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/linter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#linter</a> options to catch coding errors. What linters do you use, and how do you make them work with screen readers?

Lanie CarmeloHello, fellow <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/ActuallyAutistic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ActuallyAutistic</a> and <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/Neurodivergent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Neurodivergent</a> programmers! 🧠💻 I'm hoping to tap into our collective wisdom for some coding advice.I'm currently working on my next <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/freeCodeCamp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#freeCodeCamp</a> project - building a Pokémon Search App. As a blind, autistic programmer, I often find myself overwhelmed when starting new projects, especially when it comes to the JavaScript portions. HTML usually feels more straightforward to me, but JS can be a real challenge.Some specific hurdles I'm facing: 1. Breaking down the project into manageable steps 2. Knowing where to start with the JS functionality 3. Dealing with the anxiety of facing a blank script.js file 4. Managing executive function to actually begin codingI'm particularly nervous about: - Implementing the search functionality - Fetching and handling data from the PokeAPI - Dynamically updating the DOM with search resultsDo any of you have tips, strategies, or personal experiences to share about: - Tackling new programming assignments without getting overwhelmed? - Breaking down complex tasks into smaller, more manageable pieces? - Overcoming the initial anxiety of starting a new project? - Specific techniques for handling JavaScript challenges? - Tools or resources that have been particularly helpful for neurodivergent coders?I'm also curious about how other blind or visually impaired developers approach these challenges. Any assistive tech recommendations or coding techniques that have been game-changers for you?Your insights could really help me and potentially other neurodivergent coders facing similar challenges. Let's share our experiences and build a supportive coding community!<a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/AskingAutistics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AskingAutistics</a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/AutisticInTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AutisticInTech</a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/NeurodivergentCoding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#NeurodivergentCoding</a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/JavaScript" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#JavaScript</a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/WebDevelopment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WebDevelopment</a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/CodingTips" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CodingTips</a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/ProgrammingHelp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ProgrammingHelp</a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/Accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Accessibility</a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/BlindProgrammers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BlindProgrammers</a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/freeCodeCamp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#freeCodeCamp</a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/PokeAPI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PokeAPI</a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/ExecutiveFunction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ExecutiveFunction</a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/CodingAnxiety" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CodingAnxiety</a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/SupportiveComm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SupportiveComm</a>

Ed Howland<a href="https://tech.lgbt/@deilann" class="u-url mention">@deilann</a> go plain text! Plain text should be a universal option for every possible content format on the Internet. If you can't go with plain text, then at least go with good accessible HTML. This is why I like the command line so much. It's all plain text and very accessible.<a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/A11y" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#A11y</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/CLI" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#CLI</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/BlindProgrammers" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#BlindProgrammers</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Accessibility</a>
