+ | * Software License (GPL, MIT, etc.) | ||
+ | * Confidence (low, medium, high): does the software seems to be reliable, maintained, etc? | ||
+ | * Community activity (low, medium, high): is there a community support? Is the development team close to the community? | ||
+ | * Platforms (Windows, Linux, OS X, etc.) | ||
+ | * Development language(s) | ||
+ | * Customizable theme/UI (yes/no, limitations) | ||
+ | * Accessibility potential (name of the UI toolkit or any a11y related information) | ||
+ | * Internationalization (i18n) system | ||
