In this video we'll call the D3D11CreateDeviceAndSwapChain function. It creates three important objects for us:
Swap Chain: This object manages memory buffers, flipping rendered frames to the monitor etc.
Device: This object is used to create various resources like the render target view (which we'll have a look at next time).
Context: The context is the object which is used to do the actual rendering.
