BrailleFlow
A web app that teaches braille typing like a typing game. Built by a blind developer, tested with the screen reader on.
The walkthrough film
Build film coming. The written breakdown is below.
Where it started
I was building a tool to practice braille typing and the first version ran in the terminal. It turned out to be unusable with a screen reader, which I found out the honest way, by using it. So it got rebuilt as a web app.
What it became
A typing game. The lessons build up letter by letter, the app listens to what you type, and your progress saves as you go. Everything works with VoiceOver because I use VoiceOver.
The stack
Plain HTML, JavaScript, and CSS. No framework. Sometimes the simple stack is the right stack.
