Voice Over is insanely easy to work with, I recommend it to everyone I work with. I would say it takes maybe 20minutes to get a hang of the basic shortcuts and navigation modes.
I've been thinking about making a "VO for Web Devs" cheat sheet at some point, would that be a useful thing for you?
(Of course, I'm making assumptions about being in the apple garden.)
- jerf 3y agoWell, as it happens I'm not, but I imagine it would be useful for people in general, and I'll promise you an upvote on HN if I see it. :) I imagine you can make a solid guide if you really focus it on the use case of "here's how to evaluate your site for this specific purpose".
- graypegg 3y agoNoted! I sadly don't have much experience with the options for windows / linux flavours, but I'm sure something like NVDA [0] could be useful for you to test these things! The idea would be to learn the tool first, (feel at least capable to open the browser from your taskbar and jump around a few tabs for example. This is generally a 20min task.) then set up a few goals to do on your site. Finding a specific page, or making an account. Even with sight, and knowledge of your site, you'll very quickly hear the odd-ball places where the descriptions give duplicated info or even false info. Just don't touch the mouse! Experience the interface, as if this was your portal into the internet. I think I'll get moving on that cheat sheet then! Thanks eh! :) [0] https://www.nvaccess.org/download/ https://www.nvaccess.org/download/
