Get started What can Qiskit do Qiskit accelerates the development of quantum applications by providing the complete set of tools needed for interacting with quantum systems and simulators. Access to circuits Access a rich set of well-studied circuits, which can be used as benchmarks, building blocks in more complex circuits, or as a tool to explore quantum computational advantage. Hardware Access Execute code on multiple quantum hardware architectures, from superconducting qubits to trapped-ions. Quantum Algorithms Research and prototype machine learning, optimization, and chemistry applications by building upon a library of quantum algorithms. Noise Mitigation Study and reduce the impact of noise using built-in modules for noise characterization and circuit optimization. Full overview Quick Start When you are looking to start Qiskit, you have two options. You can start Qiskit locally, which is much more secure and private, or you get started with Jupyter Notebooks hosted in IBM Quantum Lab. Start locally To install Qiskit locally, you will need Python 3.6+. Although it is not required, we recommend using a virtual environment with Anaconda. Qiskit Install Stable (recommended) Unstable Operating System Linux Mac Windows Terminal Copy pip install qiskit Start Online Get started in the cloud without installing anything with IBM Quantum Lab. IBM Quantum Lab Learn with Qiskit Gain access to a free, digital textbook to study the concepts of quantum computing using Qiskit.
