In this blog post, I would like to talk about a feature that is especially interesting when it comes to new ways for you to incorporate your own ideas and vision into our tools: Custom compilation steps, which allow you to extend and customize the Q# compilation process.

We discuss code actions in Q# and the details of their implementation in the compiler.

With our April release coming out, you may have noticed some major changes. This is therefore a good time to recap the language features we have introduced over the last couple of months, elaborate a little bit on the newest changes, and peek into what is coming next.

In previous blog posts you have read about some of the ideas behind Q#, how it came into existence, and its development over the past year. You have read about quantum computing, quantum algorithms and what you can do with Q# today. With the end of the year approaching, there is only one more thing to cover: What is next?
