I'd like to have both the taskbar (Ubuntu Dock) and the topbar auto-hidden in Ubuntu 19.04. I've tried a number of extensions but they're not doing exactly that - mostly they hide then when a window or the cursor hovers over these regions.

Is there a way to have them auto-hidden so that only desktop icons show when I'm in the desktop view?

To keep the Ubuntu Dock hidden until mouse-hover, run the following command in Terminal

gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.dash-to-dock intellihide false

(reference: Ubuntu dock is stuck)

For the top bar, you may use a GNOME Shell extension called Hide Top Bar. You need to turn the intellihide features off from the extension's settings window:
