Window management in MoonWorks is implemented using the [SDL2](https://www.libsdl.org) library. All window management is handled through the `OSWindow` class. A reference to this class named `Window` is automatically created and can be retrieved from your `Game` subclass.

Your game is assumed to have a window and you must pass a `WindowCreateInfo` struct when creating your `Game`.

- `WindowTitle` is the name of the window that will be displayed in the operating system.
- `WindowWidth` is how wide the window will be.
- `WindowHeight` is how tall the window will be.
- `ScreenMode` determines whether the window will be created in windowed mode, fullscreen, or borderless fullscreen.

You can change the screen mode at runtime with the `ChangeScreenMode` method:

```cs
Window.ChangeScreenMode(ScreenMode.Fullscreen);
```

You can change the window size at runtime with the `SetWindowSize` method.

```cs
Window.SetWindowSize(1280, 720);
```

Note that if you change the screen resolution, it is *your* responsibility to manage any graphics state that may need to change as a result of this change.
