Microsoft Quantum Development Kit: Q# runtime

Welcome to the Microsoft Quantum Development Kit!

This repository contains the runtime components for the Quantum Development Kit. It consists of the libraries and packages needed to create and simulate quantum applications using Q#.

  • Simulation/: Source for Q# simulation. Includes code generation, full-state and other simulators.
  • xUnit/: Source for the xUnit's Q# test-case discoverer.

New to Quantum?

See the introduction to quantum computing provided with the Quantum Development Kit.

Installing the Quantum Development Kit

If you're looking to use Q# to write quantum applications, please see the instructions on how to get started with using the Quantum Development Kit including the Q# compiler, language server, and development environment extensions.

Please see the installation guide for further information on how to get started using the Quantum Development Kit to develop quantum applications. You may also visit our Quantum repository, which offers a wide variety of samples on how to write quantum based programs.

Building from Source

Build Status

Note that when building from source, this repository is configured so that .NET Core will automatically look at the Quantum Development Kit prerelease feed in addition to any other feeds you may have configured.

Windows

To build on Windows:

  1. Install the pre-reqs:
  2. Run bootstrap.cmd from the Developer Command Prompt for VS 2019.
    • This script prepares and builds the native (C++) full-state simulator.
    • You only need to run it once.
  3. Open and build the Simulation.sln solution in Visual Studio.

The Simulation.sln solution does not include the full-state quantum simulator. To change it, you can open the quantum-simulator.sln solution created during bootstrap in the src\Simulation\Native\build. To integrate your changes with the rest of the simulation components, you must first manually build it using the Release configuration.

macOS/Linux

To build on other platforms:

  1. Install the pre-reqs:
  2. Run bootstrap.sh
    • This script prepares and builds the native (C++) full-state simulator.
    • You only need to run it once.
  3. From the command line, run these two commands:
    • dotnet build Simulation.sln

The Simulation.sln solution does not include the full-state simulator. To integrate any changes with the rest of the simulation components, you need to manually build it using make in the src\Simulation\Native\build folder.

Testing

All unit tests are part of the Simulation.sln solution. To run the tests:

  • From Visual Studio:
    • Open Test Explorer by choosing Test > Windows > Test Explorer from the top menu bar.
    • Run your unit tests by clicking Run All.
  • From the command line run:
    • dotnet test Simulation.sln
