If you’re really serious I would first recommend you familiarize yourself with the needs of blind users generally. Like try using the internet with your eyes closed and a screen reader to understand how a blind person would interact with a website. Maybe you can ask around or Google some tips for getting started with that.
I had a former coworker who was a UX designer and he taught himself to use a screen reader for this reason since he was required to ensure anything he designed was accessible.
What type of tools does the blind community use? I can code, I’d love to make a tool to help out.

First one that comes to mind for me is RedReader, but I’m not blind so idk if that’s their only tool or if they have others they prefer.
What does it do for the blind community, like text to audio conversion or something?
I believe it’s a type of screen reader, this is what came up when I tried to find more info.
