Circuit composition and OpenQASM translation package for QuantEx project. Creates a backend-agnostic algorithm and circuit composition framework, which can subsequently be used to generate OpenQASM, or tie directly to other quantum assembly languages.
Integrates with PicoQuant.jl to perform full end-to-end demonstrations of quantum circuit simulation as part of the QuantEx project.
QuantExQASM.jl is activated in the same manner as PicoQuant.jl, where the following instructions will mirror the details provided there.
The prototype comes in the form of a Julia package which is targeted to versions of Julia from v1 on. Binaries and source for this can be downloaded from https://julialang.org/.
Once installed, from the Julia REPL prompt navigate to the QuantExQASM folder
and activate the environment, instantiate it and then build QuantExQASM.
This should install dependencies specified in the Project.toml and
Manifest.toml files as well as carry out any package specific build tasks
detailed in deps/build.jl. To use a custom python environment see the section
below on using different python environments.

Unittests can be run from the QuantExQASM root folder with
julia --project=. tests/runtests.jl
This package uses Documenter.jl to generate html documentation from the sources. To build the documentation, run the make.jl script from the docs folder.
cd docs && julia make.jl
The documentation will be placed in the build folder and can be hosted locally by starting a local http server with
cd build && python3 -m http.server
