 While you can build Q# applications in any IDE, we recommend using Visual Studio Code (VS Code) or Visual Studio IDE for developing your Q# applications if you are running them via a .NET console. Developing in these environments leverages the rich functionality of the Quantum Development Kit (QDK) extension, which includes warnings, syntax highlighting, project templates, and more.

-> If you are working on Linux, you may encounter a missing dependency depending on your particular distribution and installation method (such as certain Docker images). Please make sure that the `libgomp` library is installed on your system, as the GNU OpenMP support library is required by the quantum simulator of the QDK. On Ubuntu, you can do so by running `sudo apt install libgomp1`, or `yum install libgomp` on CentOS. For other distributions, please refer to your particular package manager.
