Project using Kirin

Quantum Computing

We are actively using Kirin in QuEra Computing, here are some open-source eDSLs for quantum computing that we have developed using Kirin:

• bloqade.qasm2 This is an eDSL for quantum computing that we uses Kirin to define an eDSL for the Quantum Assembly Language (QASM) 2.0. It demonstrates how to create multiple dialects, run custom analysis and rewrites, and generate code from the dialects (back to QASM 2.0 in this case).
• bloqade.stim This is an eDSL for quantum computing that we uses Kirin to define an eDSL for the STIM language. It demonstrates how to create multiple dialects, run custom analysis and rewrites, and generate code from the dialects (back to Stim in this case).
• bloqade.qBraid this example demonstrates how to lower from an existing representation into Kirin IR by using the visitor pattern.
