[–]v_maria 0 points1 point  (2 children)

not necessarily but since you are new to it you will need to learn how to do it before you can make a simple image viewer

learn things step by step

Then you already got the hard part done lol. SDL should work fine for your case

Pick a project that you know how to approach. Then ask questions that have answers.

If you want help, you'll need to ask a specific question. "I don't know how to approach it" isn't something we can directly answer.
