Love2D trouble

(5/15/2026)

I generally dislike the Love2D wiki. I have recently begun using the Love2D framework for a small game and as a beginner I have been quite reliant on the docs for help on what to do. I do this because I want to avoid tutorial hell. The only problem is that when it comes to explaining how things work, Love2D's wiki doesn't. I'm specifically having trouble learning how to use the physics framework in Love2D. I understand how to set up a physics object like attaching a body to a sprite and using a fixture to connect the body and the shape. The problem is I don't understand how to actually do anything with it after I set it up. I know I will figure it out eventually so long as I keep at it but it's just frustrating to work with.
