Bonjour,
Yes, in fact Many developers don't have a braille display, .
But many blind to, it s very expensive 4000€ for a typycal personnal {
device.
We count that it costs 100 € for each cells.
But you don't need a braille display, to test accessibility.
Personnaly I yse very few the mine.
There are some mad blinds, who use only braille display, with linux on
text mode.
About software you can use Jaws for free during 45 minutes sessions
It is enough for testing, your work.
And after you just need to restart.
There are some problems with Windows 8.1, which is never realy stoped.
I have never used windows eye, in France the blind learn Jaws and NVDA
at school.
I have no idea aabout other countries, but Jaws and Zoom Text seems
the most used software by visual defficient in the world.
Cordialement
Fabrice
