Hands on #
There are several ways for you to get started hands-on. Depending on how much time you have, whether you have an existing Kubernetes cluster to work with, and how hands-on you want to be at this point, choose the path that fits best. You can always come back and explore the other paths as well. The more hands-on, the greater your learnings.
An existing Humanitec Organization is a prerequisite for each path. If you do not have one yet, sign up here for a free trial.
