How do you look at source code?

I found a cool platformer made with LOVE and the source code is available for download, so I wanted to look at it to better understand how game dev works, but when it gave me the .love file, I had no idea how to actually see the source, can anyone explain?

A .love is just a renamed .zip. Rename it back to .zip and extract it and look at the lua files.
