A developer demonstrates how they use Talon Voice and a Tobii eye tracker to program hands-free due to RSI.

Learn about web accessibility on everyonesweb.com, a site that I coded mostly by voice! I had to learn to code by voice. Finally, I've found a solution to not being able to type for long periods of time because of RSI (Repetitive Strain Injury) - hands free coding! I now use Talon Voice and a Tobii eye tracker to control my computer using voice recognition. It's great accessibility software that I didn't even know existed until I suddenly needed it!

Talon and Serenade AI are both great tools for coding via speech :)

There is no need for a touch screen for writing code. There is no need for a keyboard either. You can use a microphone and an eye tracker for programming. For example [video
