Hi there everyone, hope all is well with you.
I'm looking to getting into iOS development and I'm looking for full-time blind iOS developers to answer my questions.
First, what kind of difficulties are expected in the hole process from A to Z?
Second, what resources do you recommend to learn the hole aspects of iOS development?
I hope to find answers here.
Thanks in advance.

Xcode with Playgrounds is the first step
Hello,
In my experience, first you have to understand Swift and SwiftUI.
But to do this you have to understand Xcode. Xcode is the development tool and it has a lot of areas. You have good skills using VoiceOver.
Tasks like writing code, managing files in a project or running your app in the simulator or the device are not complicated using VoiceOver. There are some complicated tasks for blind developers like using debugging tools like Instruments, reading the debug console when it is showing thousands messages (you have to manage the amount of messages in console to improve your experience reading debug messages) And finally there are some unaccessible tasks for blind developers because these areas are not accessible with Xcode or they are very complicated (SwiftUI previewer, classMaps, drag and drop)
Some tips:
