Look at the very top for the menu item Window, then go to UI Elements, here you can show or hide the various interfaces. When you learn to use the spacebar, you can go to Hide UI Elements and have just a viewport user added image Hold the spacebar down and see what I mean user added image

Red bellows of flame have blackened my stones
Convulsing my frame and cracking my bones
Hell's dragons of steel who roar in their chains
Crawl into my caves to suck out my veins.....
