Thanks for contributing to Qiskit documentation! Before your PR can be merged, it will first need to pass continuous integration tests and be reviewed. Sometimes the review process can be slow, so please be patient. Thanks! 🙌 One or more of the following people are relevant to this code: |

Note that the rollout of fractional gate has been delayed to August. So perhaps we want to hold on to this update until a later time. |

| While this documentation uses the primitives from Qiskit Runtime, which allow you to use IBM® backends, the primitives can be run on any provider by using the [backend primitives](#backend) instead. Additionally, you can use the *reference* primitives to run on a local statevector simulator. See [Exact simulation with Qiskit primitives](simulate-with-qiskit-sdk-primitives) for details. | |||
