QCOR is a C++ language extension and associated compiler implementation for hybrid quantum-classical programming.
To install the qcor
nightly binaries (for Mac OS X and Linux x86_64) run the following command from your terminal
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://aide-qc.github.io/deploy/install.sh)"
To use the Python API, be sure to set your PYTHONPATH
.
For more details, see the full installation documentation page.
Nightly docker images are also available that serve up a VSCode IDE on port 8080. To use this image, run
docker run -it -p 8080:8080 qcor/qcor
and navigate to https://localhost:8080
in your browser to open the IDE and get started with QCOR.
Alternatively, you could use the qcor/cli
image providing simple command-line access to the qcor
compiler.
docker run -it qcor/cli
