## Abstract

We compute different versions of link Floer homology $HFL^{-}$ and $\widehat{HFL}$ for any $L$-space link with two components. The main approach is to compute the $h$-function of the filtered chain complex which is determined by the Alexander polynomials of every sublink of the $L$-space link. As an application, Thurston polytope and Thurston norm of any 2-component $L$-space link are explicitly determined by Alexander polynomials of the link and the link components.
