The Quantum Field Kit

You don't need a $10M fridge to write quantum code. Start with these free simulators and SDKs.

01

Simulators & Environments

QSim (Government of India)

India's indigenous Quantum Computer Simulator Toolkit. Allows you to write and debug quantum code before running it on actual hardware.

IBM Quantum Experience

The gold standard for cloud access. Use the "Circuit Composer" drag-and-drop interface to build quantum circuits visually.

02

Code Libraries (Python)

Qiskit (IBM)

The most popular open-source SDK. Excellent documentation and huge community support.

Cirq (Google)

Google's library for writing quantum circuits on NISQ (Noisy Intermediate Scale Quantum) processors.

03

Hardware Reality Check

Warning: The "Noise" Problem

We are in the NISQ Era (Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum). Real hardware represents qubits with errors. Your perfect code might fail on real hardware due to environmental noise.

Always validate on a simulator first.
