White developed a knight, and left black free to do whatever he wants, except for 1...e5.
Anything can happen. Are you looking for anything specific?
1.Nf3
Sort:
It is the Zukertort Opening. It is flexible and gives White a lot of options as he has not committed to a specific pawn structure. Black cannot play e5 now.
What do you want to know about? Please clarify.

If you guys still think I am still being unspecific just give me the main line names and opening names I need to know so that I can study it later on. Thank you.
Wait! Luckily, you can just click on it! It leads you to the browser page. I didn't expect it to be clickable as I wrote it myself.
Try out a setup with ..d5, ..e6, ..Nf6, ..Be7, ..0-0, ..b6, ..Bb7, ..Nbd7, ..c5, ..Qc7, ..Rfd8, ..Rac8:

That's a gigantic subject (really almost anything can still happen) so thanks but no thanks.
Fundamental Chess Openings is a fine book.

well since it is a big subject i figured just the popular lines with theory should do for now.
It usually transposes to mainline e4 and d4 lines. Don't worry about theory.
One thing to remember: white can play d4 at any moment and transpose to an opening normally reached by 1.d4, so for many people their choice of what to do against 1.Nf3 depends on what they do against 1.d4.
The Catalan is a good opening. Must learn.
1. Nf3 is the Zukertort, but most people (and some Chess sites) refer to it as the Reti.
Correct. The Reti is different slightly.
How does this work? I need reliable answers please.
Thanks
