⚛️ Quantum Information Science Kit for JavaScript. 💡 This project born as a clone (in JS) of its big brother.

beta: Until v1 breaking changes could be included.

📙 The basic concept of our quantum program is an array of quantum circuits. The program workflow consists of three stages: Build, Compile, and Run. Build allows you to make different quantum circuits that represent the problem you are solving. Compile allows you to rewrite them to run on different backends (simulators/real chips of different quantum volumes, sizes, fidelity, etc); and Run launches the jobs. After the jobs have been run, the data is collected. There are methods for putting this data together, depending on the program. This either gives you the answer you wanted or allows you to make a better program for the next instance.

If you want to learn more about Quantum Computing, you're invited to visit our Quamtum Experience project.

👜 The components of this repository are exposed as these libraries:

• @qiskit/sdk: Meta-package, documented in this file. It also includes a command line client, which is your friend if you want to play with some OpenQASM circuits (in the Quantum Experience or the local simulator) without having to use any other programming language.
• @qiskit/qasm: OpenQASM stuff, including the parser.
• @qiskit/cloud: To send circuits to the Quantum Experience.
• @qiskit/sim: Local simulator for OpenQASM circuits.
• @qiskit/utils: Helpers shared among all packages.
• @qiskit/devs: High level algorithms for easy use. Designed for developers (vs. researchers).

You can find a bundled version with the same stuff ready to be used in the browser in the dist folder.

☕ Install last Node.js stable version (or LTS) and then:

npm i -g @qiskit/sdk

🚀 The command line client allows to play with the circuits without having to use any programming language API.

qiskitjs --help

📝 As you can see in the next section, we have to use it like in the rest of independent modules. The only difference is we need to select the proper field of the main object before.

const qiskit = require('@qiskit/sdk');

console.log('Simulator version');
console.log(qiskit.sim.version);
