I would look at the TCC documentation, specifically the quick start guide, provided on the TCC web page. Assuming you have some source code already, a compilation is as simple as

tcc -o executable.exe sourcefile.c

You can also run a C file directly with the -run option, as in

tcc -run sourcefile.c
