Hi, all! Been dabbling with LÖVE for a while in my past time, it's been a great hobby, but I've finally decided to do something​ productive with it. I want to make Mobile apps. Only thing is I've got no experience with making apps... Namely controlling the phone. I can't find anything in the wiki –or the forum from what I can tell– about controlling the navigation bar or hiding it. Am I missing something? Anyone have any tips about that or the dev road ahead??

If you run love in exclusive full screen the bar will be gone.
For iOs you might have to set a flag in your plist in xcode.

All in all, yes you can hide the navbar.

As for a roadmap:
Start with something simple. Write a super silly game, a snake clone. Or even simpler.
Make that work on windows/Marcos/Linux - whatever desktop you run.
Try to port that to mobile. Start with iOS or Android. Then do the respective other.
Plenty of documentation on the wiki/forum if you get stuck.

Oh nice.. overlooked that completely. Good pointers though, much appreciated! Found that the escape key works for the back button –duh– thanks again. Can't wait to get started!
