New to Tulip and want some help getting started? We have you covered 🙂

1. If you don’t have Tulip already, you can request a free 30 day trial here: [tulip.co/trial](https://tulip.co/trial/?utm_source=community.tulip.co&utm_medium=referral+&utm_campaign=c_gs_get_started_with_tulip_post)

2. This **Knowledge Base** (KB) is a collection of articles, videos, and documentation to help you learn how to use Tulip. This KB article covers all the resources we offer and gives you a great starting point: [support.tulip.co/docs/get-started](https://support.tulip.co/docs/get-started?utm_source=community.tulip.co&utm_medium=referral+&utm_campaign=c_gs_get_started_with_tulip_post)

3. Ready to go back to school? **Tulip University** is a free, on-demand resource for learning Tulip. To dive into the basics of building applications in Tulip, you can take our [Tulip University Get Started Course](https://university.tulip.co/learn/learning-plans/87/get-started)

4. We also have something really neat called the **Tulip Library** , which is a collection of ready-to-use content developed by Tulip experts. A great template for you to start with as you are learning to build apps is the Library Design Template. You can import it into your instance from the link here: [tulip.co/library/apps/design-template/](https://tulip.co/library/apps/design-template/?utm_source=community.tulip.co&utm_medium=referral+&utm_campaign=c_gs_get_started_with_tulip_post)

5. Last and certainly not least, you can get live help from a Tulipian and other Tulip users during one of our 3 **office hours** sessions that we host weekly. Check out the [Office Hours Category](https://community.tulip.co/c/office-hours/29) to get more details and save the meeting links!
