So this is another Handmade series that you need to extrapolate knowledge if you want to follow on Linux, right? Nothing against it, of course, but, since I'm new to game programming, trying to learn SDL as I learned this stuff back in Handmade Hero was a huge pain, I couldn't get past the 14th episode or so.

The port to Linux will happen later. I forget the exact episode Casey justifies this but basically the problem for game developers is that every other platform other than Window is not a good target platform if you want to stay in business. So he's showing people how to target Windows first and will show us how to port later. Just go look at the Steam hardware survey to find out why.
