Visual Studio Accessibility

Help Us Make Visual Studio More Accessible!

I'm Aaron Brethorst, the Program Manager responsible for Accessibility and User Interface Consistency throughout Visual Studio. The team I work with is very interested in building up a contact list of our users who use Visual Studio with any and all accessibility settings enabled:

Screen readers and other assistive technologies.
High contrast mode.
Large fonts.
and anything else I may have missed.

We'd love the opportunity to discuss how we can improve your experience with Visual Studio on an ongoing basis.

Please leave a comment on this weblog, or email me directly at abreth@microsoft.com.

Thanks!
Aaron

Accessibility in Visual Studio

Sara Ford, an incredibly talented tester on VS Platform, my team, recently moved over to work on testing the Visual Studio Editor. As part of this transition, she has left her role in the Visual Studio Accessibility team. As part of this transition, we decided that it made the most sense to create a shared weblog for our "virtual team." Sara had a ton of great accessibility-related content on her weblog that we didn't want to lose, so I have moved all of it over here. You can count on the VSAccessibility blog being a great source for more information in the future.

Thanks,

Aaron Brethorst
