Hey All,

Welcome to the inaugural monthly, **Nuon newsletter**! We will be sharing product updates, things going on in the community, and upcoming events!

## New On Nuon

Nuon's free trial is now self-service, and you can sign up for the trial [here](https://app.nuon.co).

![The first time you log into the Nuon trial, you are prompted to download the CLI and sync an example app config](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/3jtsca34/production/c3ab80c7cb6c78fe72cee7d0beab6e594b55c08a-3069x1890.jpg?w=1200)

*The first time you log into the Nuon trial, you are prompted to download the CLI and sync an example app config*

We’ve also added a new component, Kubernetes Manifest, to compliment our Helm, Terraform and Image components.

```yaml
#:schema https://api.nuon.co/v1/general/config-schema?type=kubernetes-manifest
name = "kubernetes_manifest"
type = "kubernetes_manifest"

namespace = "nuon-sample"
manifest = """
apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
name: demo
data:
sample_data: "3"
"""
```

## New Blog Posts

Check out our post on the [Nuon Runner](https://nuon.co/blog/the-nuon-runner-architecture/) and why we think this is a critical architecture component for BYOC applications.

We are publishing a three-part series on How the Nuon Platform Works, check it out [here](https://nuon.co/blog/how-nuon-works-part-1-configuring-your-app/).
