 - **Documentation**: The project provides documentation in the form of wiki pages available at [Documentation](https://github.com/microsoft/DirectXTex/wiki/).
 - **Error Handling**: Use C++ exceptions for error handling and uses RAII smart pointers to ensure resources are properly managed. For some functions that return HRESULT error codes, they are marked `noexcept`, use `std::nothrow` for memory allocation, and should not throw exceptions.
 - **Testing**: Unit tests for this project are implemented in this repository [Test Suite](https://github.com/walbourn/directxtextest/) and can be run using CTest per the instructions at [Test Documentation](https://github.com/walbourn/directxtextest/wiki).
-- **Security**: This project uses secure coding practices from the Microsoft Secure Coding Guidelines, and is subject to the `SECURITY.md` file in the root of the repository. Functions that read input from geometry files are subject to OneFuzz testing to ensure they are secure against malformed files.
+- **Security**: This project uses secure coding practices from the Microsoft Secure Coding Guidelines, and is subject to the `SECURITY.md` file in the root of the repository. Functions that read input from geometry files are subject to OneFuzz fuzz testing to ensure they are secure against malformed files.
 - **Dependencies**: The project uses CMake and VCPKG for managing dependencies, making optional use of DirectXMath and DirectX-Headers. The project can be built without these dependencies, relying on the Windows SDK for core functionality.
 - **Continuous Integration**: This project implements GitHub Actions for continuous integration, ensuring that all code changes are tested and validated before merging. This includes building the project for a number of configurations and toolsets, running a subset of unit tests, and static code analysis including GitHub super-linter, CodeQL, and MSVC Code Analysis.
 - **Code of Conduct**: The project adheres to the [Microsoft Open Source Code of Conduct](https://opensource.microsoft.com/codeofconduct/). All contributors are expected to follow this code of conduct in all interactions related to the project.

+## Cross-platform Support Notes
+
+- The code supports building for Windows and Linux.
+- Portability and conformance of the code is validated by building with Visual C++, clang/LLVM for Windows, MinGW, and GCC for Linux.
+
+The following symbols are not custom error codes, but aliases for `HRESULT_FROM_WIN32` error codes.
+
+| Symbol | Standard Win32 HRESULT |
+|--------|-------------|
+| `HRESULT_ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND` |  `HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND)` |
+| `HRESULT_E_ARITHMETIC_OVERFLOW` |  `HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(ERROR_ARITHMETIC_OVERFLOW)` |

+## Code Review Instructions
+
+When reviewing code, focus on the following aspects:
+
+- Adherence to coding standards defined in `.editorconfig` and on the [wiki](https://github.com/microsoft/DirectXTK/wiki/Implementation).
+- Make coding recommendations based on the *C++ Core Guidelines*.
+- Proper use of RAII and smart pointers.
+- Correct error handling practices and C++ Exception safety.
+- Clarity and maintainability of the code.
+- Adequate comments where necessary.
+- Public interfaces located in `DirectXTex.h` should be clearly defined and documented on the GitHub wiki.
+- Optional functions are located in `DirectXTexEXR.h`, `DirectXTexJPEG.h`, `DirectXTexPNG.h`, and `DirectXTexXbox.h` in the `Auxiliary` folder.
+- Standalone modules for loading textures from DDS Files are located in `DDSTextureLoader9.h`, `DDSTextureLoader11.h`, and `DDSTextureLoader12.h` in the `DDSTextureLoader` folder.
+- Standalone modules are loading textures using WIC are located in `WICTextureLoader9.h`, `WICTextureLoader11.h`, and `WICTextureLoader12.h` in the `WICTextureLoader` folder.
+- Standalone modules for capturing screenshots are located in `ScreenGrab9.h`, `ScreenGrab11.h`, and `ScreenGrab12.h` in the `ScreenGrab` folder.
+- Compliance with the project's architecture and design patterns.
+- Ensure that all public functions and classes are covered by unit tests located on [GitHub](https://github.com/walbourn/directxtextest.git) where applicable. Report any gaps in test coverage.
+- Check for performance implications, especially in geometry processing algorithms.
+- Provide brutally honest feedback on code quality, design, and potential improvements as needed.
+
+## Documentation Review Instructions
+
+When reviewing documentation, do the following:
+
+- Read the code located in [this git repository](https://github.com/microsoft/DirectXTex.git) in the main branch.
+- Review the public interface defined in `DirectXTex.h`.
+- Read the documentation on the wiki located in [this git repository](https://github.com/microsoft/DirectXTex.wiki.git).
+- Report any specific gaps in the documentation compared to the public interface
