Quantum Circuit Visualizer

Learn quantum computing, one gate at a time.

Start from zero. Quanta guides you through 36 bite-sized lessons: watch the idea, build the circuit yourself and see the quantum state change live.

Hi, I'm Quanta! Everyone starts with one qubit. Your first circuit takes about 3 minutes.

How it works

Learning that feels like playing

No walls of equations. Each lesson is a few minutes long and ends with you building something that works.

Step 1

Watch

Every lesson opens with a short narrated walkthrough, so you see the idea before you touch anything.

Step 2

Try it yourself

Drag gates onto a live circuit and watch the probabilities and the qubit's state change as you go.

Step 3

Level up

Earn XP, keep a daily streak, collect badges and watch Quanta grow up alongside you.

Stuck? You're not on your own.

Quanta is there in every lesson with hints when you need them, and on bigger screens she follows you around the site. Ask her about the circuit you're building. Mistakes are part of learning, and nothing you try here can break.
