There is also this tuto for xcb :

https://xcb.freedesktop.org/tutorial/

and this doc for Xlib programming with many examples :

Hi,

Hi!

I would like to learn how to create a C graphical application without
using some toolkit for hobby. I know that there are two main libraries:
Xlib and xcb. The first is old but has a lot of documentation, the
second is newer but less documented than the first. So I was thinking to
learn Xlib and then xcb.

I found this book about Xlib: "XLIB Programming Manual" of Adrian Nye
published on 1994. I do not found any other recent book. Is it good to
start with Xlib even is it old?

[1] is a guide that should be fairly valid on xlib.
 From there you can afterwards embed xlib-xcb.h, gradually migrate from
xlib to xcb reading the docs, read the guide from iotek for fonts in
xcb without xft [2] or embed pango in your application.
