LibwiiGui is written in C++ and uses classes. Classes are a collection of functions and variables related to a single thing. When using these classes, their collected functions and variables (if they are declared public) can be accessed by a dot (.) in some cases, and an arrow (->) in other cases. This will become more understandable later on in the tutorial, but for now, know that when the class instance is created with an asterisk (*) before it, you will be using the arrow (->). When the class is created without the asterisk, you will use the dot (.).

This tutorial uses the same design as the demo included with libwiigui. Every menu is created inside a function. The GUI updating routine is created as a function, and is in a thread. When wanting to change to a knew menu, you set the menu variable to a value that denotes the menu you wish to change to. Again, this will become more apparent later on.

Lastly, before attempting to read this tutorial (or try to use libwiigui for that matter) you should already have at least a basic understanding of C++, if not more. You can easily find some online tutorials ([http://www.cprogramming.com cprogramming.com], [http://www.cplusplus.com cplusplus.com]) or a book from your local library.
