I'm assuming you posted this on a pc. You can just copy paste the url from the playground to add your code.
For the 1st problem you can just add a return 0 to the end of the function to make the compiler happy.
The 2nd problem is that you probably didn't select the windows subsystem.
Right click your solution name -> properties -> Linker -> System and then change SubSystem to Windows.
Also you mistyped your class name in CreateWindowW which will prevent the window from being created.

LRESULT is just an integer, I believe 64 bit on a 64 bit system and 32 bit on a 32 bit system.
The actual return value depends on the message.
0 usually means success.
For example WM_CREATE should return 0 if the creation should succeed.
If you placed return -1 inside the WM_CREATE case for example it would immediately destroy the window.

Similarly for WM_DESTROY it should always return 0

Btw, CALLBACK is just a calling convention ( stdcall ), not the return type.

Dennis But the return type of the function is LRESULT CALLBACK will it still work with return 0?
