Dev Blogs
Q# Advent Calendar is a yearly blogging event in which every day in December one awesome community member writes a blog post about Q#. Check out the previous years' blogs, and join the 2021 edition!
We introduce quantum-viz.js, a JavaScript library for quantum circuits visualization.
In this blog post we look at the end-to-end quantum software development workflow, the stages through which a quantum program goes from idea to complete implementation, and the tools offered by the Quantum Development Kit for each stage.
The new Microsoft.Quantum.AutoSubstitution NuGet package makes it easier to replace operations with alternatives when targeting different simulators.
In this blog post we’ll look at the tools offered by Microsoft Quantum Development Kit to visualize various elements of quantum programs - the quantum state of the program, the unitary transformations, and the execution path (the circuit) of the program run.
Quantum computers will be able to reveal the exact quantum nature of chemical systems exponentially faster than classical computers. In this post, we show how to use Microsoft's Q# libraries and developer tools to simulate a caffeine molecule using two quantum algorithms: Quantum Phase Estimation and Variational Quantum Eigensolver.
Learn about the common tools and tricks used for testing quantum programs, using the testing harnesses of the Quantum Katas as an example.
A look back at Q#'s third year, 2020
It can be helpful to implement Q# functions or operations directly in C# - either to access some API that is not directly accessible in Q# or to provide alternative implementations based on the context in which the Q# program is executed. This blog post describes techniques to programmatically replace a Q# function by another one.
Learn about the internal structure of the Quantum Katas - our collection of self-paced programming exercises on quantum computing - and their most important component – the testing harnesses that provide the learner immediate feedback on their solutions.
