We actively encourage its use because most quantum computing frameworks, as well as many educational resources like documentation and popular science books, are open-source. We believe in the power of collective knowledge and collaboration, and open-source projects are a testament to this. They enable our community members to learn, contribute, and innovate within the field of quantum computing, ensuring a thriving ecosystem for future advancements."
