In this tutorial series, I aim to help you learn the Windows API. By the end, you will be able to make a basic game, using no libraries except Windows.h

In this first lecture, we will learn some basic things about Windows.h, and we will use our first Windows function to open a message box.

Note: Functions with extended stuff end with an Ex not X as shown in the video, sorry for the typo.
