+## Style
 
 The Flutter engine follows Google style for the languages it uses:

 - [C++](https://google.github.io/styleguide/cppguide.html)
   - **Note**: The Linux embedding generally follows idiomatic GObject-based C
     style. Use of C++ is discouraged in that embedding to avoid creating hybrid
     code that feels unfamiliar to either developers used to working with
     `GObject` or C++ developers. For example, do not use STL collections or
     `std::string`. Exceptions:
-      - C-style casts are forbidden; use C++ casts.
-      - Use `nullptr` rather than `NULL`.
-      - Avoid `#define`; for internal constants use `static constexpr` instead.

 C/C++ and Objective-C/C++ files are formatted with `clang-format`, and GN files
 with `gn format`.
