The first of its kind, Q# is a brand-new quantum-focused programming language with native type, operators, and other abstraction. Q# features rich integration with Visual Studio and VS Code and interoperability with the Python programming language. The enterprise-grade development tools give you the fastest path to quantum programming on Windows, macOS, or Linux.

Set breakpoints, step into the Q# code, debug line-by-line, and estimate the real-world costs to run your solution. Simulate quantum solutions requiring up to 30 qubits with a local simulator, or use the Azure simulator for large-scale quantum solutions requiring more than 40 qubits.

Developed by top industry experts, a collection of ready-to-use building blocks take you from being a beginner to building your first quantum solution. The open source license allows development libraries and samples to be used in your applications, while also enabling you to contribute your own enhancements to the growing Q# community.
