 * Make sure you compile with the included Docker script and ensure you do not introduce **any** new compiler warnings or build breaks. The Docker script is the standard build environment, your custom Linux build environment or MSVC can be used during development, but you must validate the final build using Docker.
-* Do not submit snippets of code as a "patch". Exceptions can be made for trivial changes (correct a typo, fix a single line of code...), but otherwise, a successfully compiled & fully tested patch file is required when submitting for review.
 * Do not make code changes in unrelated areas; i.e., do not run code linters and auto-formatters for parts of the code that you didn't modify.
 * Try to submit smaller chunks of code, instead one gigantic patch. For example, don't submit a patch for "Improve feature XYZ"; instead, submit "Change how A works to prepare for feature XYZ" "Refactor B for feature XYZ" "Add feature B to enable feature XYZ".

 ### Using OS APIs
 
-Avoid making permanent changes to user's OS configuration. For example, spice should not make a call to set power profile to Maximum Performance, or switch default audio device. Making the reverse call to restore settings on game shutdown is **not** good enough; there is no guarantee that spice will gracefully shutdown, since games (or spice) can crash. This is to avoid inadvertently putting user's PC into a bad state, which can be seen as malware-like behavior.

 Watch out for legacy OS compatibility. Currently, the minimum support floor is Windows 7. If you use any Windows API, make sure it's supported in Windows 7. If you need to use API that is not present in Windows 7, you must not directly link against it, otherwise spice will fail to launch on older OSes. Take a look at Windows 8 touch code (win8.cpp) for examples on how to discover OS APIs via pointers.

+  * We don't use GSL.
+  * Don't throw exceptions.
+  * Stick to smart pointers. For interfacing with C Win32 API and raw buffers, use `unique_plain_ptr`.
+  * Writing in C is also completely acceptable.
