Also if you don't know Lua, (the language that love uses) then you can start to learn Lua here
http://www.lua.org/pil/1.html note that unless you have the console enabled then the Lua scripts found here will not show anything. To practice with these scripts without the love console enabled you will need to install Lua on its own which is found here

Why do such thing? Better test in some Lua online interpreter.

The obvious hassle of using a web browser to write code aside, using a Lua demo web service will not provide the full Lua experience. It has limitations because they run the scripts on their servers.
It's way easier to experiment with a binary of the standalone interpreter that runs natively on your system.
