Black Opal is amazing, I've upgraded to a Pro subscription. Explaining complex topics in simple terms - that's brilliant.
Absolutely loving the experience. I've got to say it's really really well done - the 'byte-sized' lessons, interactive visualizations, exercises - everything is perfect.
This is an excellent guide. I am part way through the first module and have to say it has covered most of the fundamentals in a very intuitive way.
Black Opal is needed as quantum computing moves from the domain of quantum physicists to a wider audience and applications. This level of learning helps to demystify quantum computing and fuel the quantum conversation.
Black Opal offers beautiful visualizations explaining the fundamentals of quantum computation. The language used is easy to comprehend with no complexity, and easily relatable.
Black Opal is a fantastic resource. I love being able to visualize Bloch sphere rotations with the Practice module. I'm still working on my Circuits badge!
