SDK / local setup¶

Use this page when you want local development workflows around the RQM platform.

Choose your integration path¶

Goal	Recommended boundary
Build an app against hosted services	`rqm-api` (service boundary)
Build tooling around external circuit payloads	`rqm-circuits` (public circuit boundary)
Work on optimization internals	`rqm-compiler` (internal optimization engine)
Build product workflows	`rqm-studio` (workflow layer)

python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install --upgrade pip

Install packages based on scope:

pip install rqm-core rqm-qiskit

curl "https://rqm-api.onrender.com/v1/circuits/example?name=bell"

Keep API-first workflows as the default unless you specifically need package internals.
