Note:

* Mangrove core and Strategies each have two distinct audits, which are complementary to each other.
* MangroveOrder is a peripheral contract for the Mangrove core protocol which allows users to submit limit orders such as:
  * Good-til-cancelled (GTC, or GTT)
  * Fill-or-kill (FOK)
* Kandel is "buy low, sell high" market making strategy that leverages Mangrove core protocol.
