NoteYou might need to configure your accessibility tool for optimal use. Some screen readers pronounce text based on its case; for example, they pronounce ALL UPPERCASE TEXT as initials, and MixedCase Text as words. You might find it helpful to configure your tool to announce syntax conventions, or to pronounce certain characters or punctuation such as underscore. Consult the documentation for your tool for information on the most useful configuration for your use.
