Will I need any extra programs?

I intend to follow the most recent processes for installing on this site, but I just want to know if there's anything in my build that would prevent Mavericks from running?

Why Mavericks? Where are you going to get it since Apple's Mac App Store only has Sierra available for downloading?
 
I already have a bootable copy, and my Macbook is running mavericks with all of my audio editing programs. I don't want to upgrade until I am sure beyond a doubt that all of my work will not be lost.
The build is to facilitate faster work (I am an audio engineer), and to have more room. I'll update my laptop later, I am just booting this up on Mavericks for now. I have a bootable copy already.
 
There is no way to install Mavericks on a Skylake/H170 system. No support for that hardware in Mavericks, it's too old.

El Cap or Sierra are your only two choices as of today.
