This is also one of my favorite and most helpful posts I’ve found working with X so far: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;jichu4n.com&#x2F;posts&#x2F;how-x-window-managers-work-and-how-to-write-one-part-i&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;jichu4n.com&#x2F;posts&#x2F;how-x-window-managers-work-and-how-...</a>

The XCB tutorial is quite good as well <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;xcb.freedesktop.org&#x2F;tutorial&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;xcb.freedesktop.org&#x2F;tutorial&#x2F;</a><p>Also, if you want to do simple graphics stuff with X11, then I highly recommend looking at <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cairographics.org&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cairographics.org&#x2F;</a> instead of trying to use the builtin drawing functions that come with X11.

For those that miss it, there&#x27;s multiple pages. If you go back one page (by hitting the left arrow link), you get an introduction and table of contents.

I don&#x27;t have anything this cool and interactive, but for those interested I&#x27;ve been working on a comprehensive Wayland book:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;wayland-book.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;wayland-book.com</a><p>It&#x27;s a little over halfway done.

Logged in to upvote this because it used the correct: X Window System and not X Windows (Grrrr...) Man X folks! [Apparently OP did.]
