summary
Visually impaired front end developer describes concrete fixes not promises: uses a monitor arm to position screens, a Chrome overlay extension to do pixel‑perfect comparisons, macOS accessibility zoom and large editor fonts (22–24) in Atom and VS Code, and remote pairing via Live Share/Teletype to avoid crowding someone else’s screen. Runs internal front‑end workshops, plans accessibility workshops, cites the Pew stat 22% vs 8% and reports these tools and processes actually improve productivity.
