Quantum SDK Setup Guides
Step-by-step setup guides for every major quantum computing SDK — all with free-tier configurations.
✨ New here? Start with HLQuantum
Instead of picking one SDK, use HLQuantum to abstract all of them. Write one circuit, run it on any backend.
IBM Qiskit
The most widely-used quantum SDK. Free access to IBM Quantum simulators and real QPUs via IBM Quantum Platform.
Google Cirq
Google's open-source framework for NISQ devices. Includes powerful local simulators with optional cloud backend.
Xanadu PennyLane
Quantum ML focused framework with many free backends. Perfect for variational algorithms and quantum-classical hybrid models.
Amazon Braket
AWS managed quantum service. Free simulators (SV1, DM1, TN1) with optional real hardware on pay-per-shot pricing.
NVIDIA CUDA-Q
GPU-accelerated quantum simulation. Run massive circuits orders of magnitude faster using NVIDIA GPUs — completely free locally.
