Contested PROD: "No credible indication of importance; likely COI in creation of article, completely unsourced apart from to the company's own website."

Since the PROD, additional sources have been added; however, they are partner companies and UGC. None of the sources added are independent, and after conducting BEFORE, I can't find any reliable independent non-UGC sources that have significant coverage of the software. There's a couple of bits on "DZone News", but I think that's UGC (and I don't think it's SIGCOV either), and the only other significant mention I can find is two sentences in a book describing it as "a bit slow".

  • Delete, no mainstream news coverage that I could find, and the name is very generic, making it harder. I don't think industry media like InfoQ counts. I like InfoQ a lot, but they cover a lot of stuff, Wikipedia shouldn't have articles for all those obscure libraries. --Ysangkok (talk) 03:54, 30 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
