Hey, I've been wondering how to create windows from scratch in Rust. I want to build a simple platformer from scratch, meaning I need a way to display the game state to the screen and update it. I am not interested in using libraries to achieve this. All I could find on the internet were very vague and unhelpful answers, telling me to use a library. I'd appreciate anything that helps me to learn more about it.

"from scratch" would mean using win api on windows, and on linux calling into whichever windowing system is in use on that installation.
If you want to work platform independent, you will have to use libraries. If you only need it to work on your own specific platform, then further advice depends on what platform that is

For now I just want to get things working on my mac, so for now I'm not really concerned with portability

well, mac is what I know least about. From some quick googling, you would probably want to create bindings for appkit. no clue how to do that, but it seems that's what cocoa does, so maybe you can check how that works:
