About Dyslexic Software Engineers
The primary goal of this discussion space is to connect software engineers with dyslexia. Through my PhD research, I have found that there appears to be very little visible representation of dyslexic software engineers online. I believe many exist, but they are difficult to find and rarely have a dedicated place to connect with one another.
