Debian Accessibility development tools

This metapackage will install packages which are useful to develop accessibility features

The list to the right includes various software projects which are of some interest to the Debian Accessibility Project. Currently, only a few of them are available as Debian packages.

For a better overview of the project's availability as a Debian package, each head row has a color code according to this scheme:

If you discover a project which looks like a good candidate for Debian Accessibility to you, or if you have prepared an unofficial Debian package, please do not hesitate to send a description of that project to the Debian Accessibility mailing list
