I am a 100% blind, (primarily) web application developer, and, main focus area at moment is PHP, MySQL, javascript/jQuery, with things like python as a form of side-line, and, main thing for me is finding right alternative tools to use - work on windows platform, using NVDA screen reader, which itself is done using python, and, while I use both WAMP and XAMPP on dev machine, I use a specific programmer's code/text editor, called edSharp, which was created by a blind dev himself, and, for things like DB management, I generally work with a web interface, from adminer.org, which can handle multiple DB platforms, but, on the program-l VI programmer's mailing list, there are a bunch of guys who work with a wide range of dev tools, for all sorts of platforms, and, there are probably a few guys there who might be interested in helping with this type of thing, but, for example, guys there work with things like eclipse, sodbeans, VS.Net, and, multiple other tools, at times with workarounds, etc., but, really just depends on your primary dev focus areas?
