Thanks! I started by learning about quantum mechanics and building basic circuits using quantum Gates. Over time, I was able to create more complex algorithms and eventually build it on a Raspberry Pi.

Impressive! Do you have any plans to open-source the code for this project or make a tutorial?

I'm glad you asked! I've been working on a tutorial to make it easy for people to build their own quantum computers at home. I'll post it along with the open-sourced code in the next few days, so stay tuned!

I've been playing around with quantum computers for a while, but never thought of using a Raspberry Pi for one. Mind blown, great job!

I wanted to build something that everyday consumers could easily access and understand, without any background in quantum computing. I hope it inspires more people to learn about this fascinating technology!
