Help -- Covers how to request assistance effectively through appropriate FreeBSD communication channels. +. Virtual Terminal -- Documents vision-related accessibility features of the FreeBSD console (man:vt[4]). +. Colors -- Explains how to configure color schemes, including high-contrast themes and adjusting screen colors for ambient lighting. +. Low Vision -- Outlines accessibility tools in graphical desktop environments for users with low vision, such as screen magnifiers, readable fonts, and scaling. +. Blindness -- Describes assistive technologies for blind users, focusing primarily on screen readers and compatible tools. +. Development -- Provides resources for developers to make their software accessible, test accessibility, and improve support for users with visual impairments. + +The handbook deliberately avoids images and minimizes non-plain-text elements to enhance compatibility with assistive technologies. +Tips and new ideas are welcome. +If possible, send reports to the FreeBSD Accessibility mailing list, to share and to track discussions in a public place. + +Sponsored by: The FreeBSD Foundation
