Getting Started
Getting started is the shortest path from a source checkout to a compiled, simulated Quon program. Three pages take you from toolchain setup to a teleportation circuit that exercises the Quantum Monad and classical feed-forward — enough to confirm the install works and see the shape of the language before reading the language guide.
Who this is for
Section titled “Who this is for”First-time users with a Rust toolchain (or Devbox) who want to build the
compiler, compile a program, and sample it on a simulator. No prior Quon
knowledge is assumed; the quickstart uses a checked-in program so you do not
write any .qn yourself yet.
What this covers
Section titled “What this covers”- Install Quon — set up the pinned compiler toolchain and the optional verification dependencies (Qiskit Aer, lit) from source.
- Quickstart — compile a Bell pair to OpenQASM 3, sample it on Qiskit Aer, and emit a neutral-atom schedule in four commands.
- Your second program — a teleportation circuit with
QRegdestructuring, the Quantum Monad, measurement, and classical feed-forward control.
Where to go next
Section titled “Where to go next”Once the install works, the language guide explains each construct used here in depth, and the cookbook walks complete CI-verified programs.
