        **Qiskit** is an open-source SDK for working with quantum computers at the level of circuits, algorithms, and application modules.
        
        ## Installation
        
        The best way of installing `qiskit` is by using `pip`:
        
        ```bash
        $ pip install qiskit
        ```
        
        See [install](https://qiskit.org/documentation/getting_started.html) Qiskit for detailed instructions, how to use virtual environments, and
        build from source standalone versions of the individual Qiskit elements and components.
        
        ## Qiskit Packaging
        
        The Qiskit project used to be made up of many components. However, in the future the Qiskit metapackage will only install [**Qiskit Terra**](https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit-terra):
