QUA lets you define quantum programs at the pulse level, specifying exact timing and waveforms for controlling qubits via Quantum Machines' OPX hardware. The SDK communicates with the QOP (Quantum Operating Platform) to execute these programs on real quantum systems.\n\nThe package bundles 11 runtime dependencies including marshmallow for data serialization, httpx and grpcio for network communication, numpy and plotly for numerical and visualization work, and tinydb for local data storage. It targets modern Python versions (3.10 through 3.14) and is classified as production-stable. The repository is actively maintained with recent releases.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you have access to a Quantum Machines OPX controller and QOP. The package is actively maintained, has low install friction, carries a permissive license, and is marked production-stable. No known security vulnerabilities. Install only if you need to control quantum systems via Quantum Machines hardware; it is not a general-purpose quantum simulator."},"id":"qm-qua","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/qm-qua","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/qm-qua.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/qm-qua/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-12","license_spdx":"BSD-3-Clause","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"qm-qua","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"QUA language SDK to control a Quantum Computer"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":135847,"position":11416,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.4.0"}
