It wasn't that hard, but it required lots of boilerplate code: creating a window, making it modal, handling the events, etc.
Making a complex GUI app with that would be a nightmare, same with Xlib. So Windows had a variety of libs to facilitate that: MS had MFC, Borland had some too for their C++ Builder — VCL, OWL? 🤔
