Where can I find documentation on the function `wglCreateContextAttribsARB`?

It’s a Windows system function that is used for creating an OpenGL rendering context, and is very cursed since you have to jump around a few hoops before you can actually use it. I barely managed to find the function signature, let alone any information on how does it work.

I search with duckduckgo and the first results seem reasonable

Here’s a signature and description khronos.org/…/Creating_an_OpenGL_Context_(WGL)#Cr… - khronos is publisher of OpenGL

here’s the function I presume without attributes, so should be helpful to relate and compare learn.microsoft.com/…/nf-wingdi-wglcreatecontext
