trisquel so good for Blinds users
To browse the web
 ice cat
To hear the music
vlc
To view pdf files
you must convert the file to txt or html
for text editor
emacs
to Programming programs in c/c++ ada python ruby you can use emacs
for java ide
no java ide working with screen readers
use text editor Instead of them
for Arduino
Arduino ide not working with screen readers
you cant use it
there is a solution
