Is CCXT performant?

Hey traders,

A few colleagues and I are thinking about setting up a few bots to trade crypto. We have been running backtests using python and connecting to exchange websockets and using rest to get data ourselves. However, we have more of a maths and stats background and aren't the best developers, so we were looking to either hire a dev or try to use a framework like CCXT to bootstrap our bots. In terms of actually building the bots, which route would you guys suggest 1) hire a dev, 2) use CCXT, 3) some other CCXT-like framework?

Thanks!

tl;dr is CCXT good for noob devs?
