+# Mind_Reader
+The current editor options available lack the level of accessibility that is
+required to allow students who are visually impaired to adequately edit, write,
+and debug code. This tool would extend Visual Studio Code’s existing
+accessibility options to allow everyone, primarily students K-12, to learn
+programming with Lego Mindstorms. Our goal is to provide an enhanced experience
+for students who are visually impaired that is transparent to sighted students.
+This allows for everyone to use the same software solution, whether or not they
+are vision impaired.
