 The application implements a spinning cube and consists of four key components:
-- **Shape Generation**: Generates vertices for a sphere using a golden ratio-based algorithm.
-- **Rotation Calculation**: Uses a rotation matrix to rotate the 3D shape around the X, Y, and Z axes.
-- **Drawing**: Draws the transformed vertices of the shapes on the screen using a Windows API.
-- **Performance Measurement**: Measures and displays the number of transforms per second.
