Quirk VS ims

The brief is essentially; currently there are only two ways to include circuits in text; write the text in LaTeX or include an image taken from some other source (e.g. an online circuit drawing/simulating tool like quirk). Neither of these solutions really allow the diagrams to fit into free flowing text for, say, blogs or web articles, so we wanted to see if we could use a font with ligature lookups to 'write out' the circuit, and thereby make it more portable (and by extension, more accessible).

This online circuit simulator shows small Bloch spheres for the qubits: https://algassert.com/quirk

Do you want to learn about the interaction between quantum gates? Then you should probably google for apps that allow you to simulate simple quantum circuits. First one I found is this one for example.

I really like quantum flytrap. Happy to see you added a bunch of tools to do basic classical processing of the events, so I don't have to hack around that anymore by like making the bombs conditionally transparent.

One feature request: the setups are small enough that you could fit a description of them into the URL. This would allow people to much more easily share setups on forums and twitter and etc. This is what I did in Quirk and it's been one of the more useful features https://algassert.com/quirk#circuit=%7B%22cols%22%3A%5B%5B%2...

Relatedly, I recently discovered https://algassert.com/quirk — it does require a bit of quantum computing knowledge to use, but I found it incredibly useful to ‘get a feel’ of how various quantum algorithms work.

I just recently played with an online quantum computer simulator to get a better understanding of how quantum fourier transform works, it's a lot of fun:
