title: Is there a simple library for C++ to draw to the screen?
body: <p>I'm just starting out in C++ programming and I want to try creating a space invaders clone in C++, I want to avoid using game libraries and things that would solve a lot of the problems (like game loop and vector maths etc) so I can tackle these myself, but, I have no idea how to begin drawing things to a screen.</p>
  
  <p>I was wondering if there's a good library I should use to simply allow myself to draw lines or graphics to the screen or whether I can do this without the use of a library?</p>
  
  <p>I'd appreciate any advice,</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
