LÖVE is a powerful framework designed for developing 2D games using the Lua programming language, and it is completely free to use for various projects, whether they are friendly open-source endeavors or commercial ventures.

Inside the folder you just created, make a new file and label it main.lua, then input the following code into the file and save your work to proceed. This initial setup will lay the groundwork for your game development journey using LÖVE.

Raylib is a straightforward and user-friendly library that makes video game programming accessible to all. It offers a coding experience that shuns complex interfaces, visual aids, and graphical tools, encouraging a pure, minimalist approach to programming. Instead of traditional API documentation or extensive tutorials, raylib focuses on a simple cheat sheet that outlines essential functions, supplemented by a vast array of examples to demonstrate practical usage. This approach reinforces the idea that one of the most effective ways to learn programming is by examining and understanding existing code. Compatible with numerous platforms, raylib has been successfully tested on various systems; however, it can also be easily adapted to any platform that supports the C language and OpenGL graphics. Furthermore, raylib boasts compatibility with over 60 different programming languages through bindings, enhancing its versatility. Users can also expand raylib's capabilities by integrating it with additional libraries, allowing for even greater functionality in their game development projects.
