Quirk is a drag-and-drop quantum circuit simulator that runs entirely in the browser, letting users build small quantum circuits and see state displays update in real time. It is a toy/educational tool supporting up to 16 qubits, with bookmarkable circuits and inline visualizations like Bloch spheres and chance displays.

Use cases

• simulate small quantum circuits in a browser without installing anything
• learn quantum computing by experimenting with gates visually
• build and share Grover search or teleportation circuit demos via links
• inspect qubit states and amplitudes while editing a circuit
• teach quantum algorithms with real-time inline state displays
• export circuit JSON or a self-contained offline HTML copy

When to choose

• you want zero-setup, interactive exploration of circuits up to 16 qubits
• you are learning or teaching quantum computing fundamentals
• you need shareable, bookmarkable circuit links or offline HTML exports

When to avoid

• you need large-scale or high-performance simulation beyond 16 qubits
• you need scripted/programmatic circuit construction or noise models
• you need mid-circuit measurement with recoherence of measured qubits
