Braket algorithms

Currently, Braket algorithms are tested on Linux, Windows, and Mac.

Running notebooks locally requires additional dependencies located in notebooks/textbook/requirements.txt. See notebooks/textbook/README.md for more information.

Installing the Amazon Braket Algorithm Library

The Amazon Braket Algorithm Library can be installed from source by cloning this repository and running a pip install command in the root directory of the repository.

git clone https://github.com/amazon-braket/amazon-braket-algorithm-library.git
cd amazon-braket-algorithm-library
pip install .

To run the notebook examples locally on your IDE, first, configure a profile to use your account to interact with AWS. To learn more, see Configure AWS CLI.

After you create a profile, use the following command to set the AWS_PROFILE so that all future commands can access your AWS account and resources.

export AWS_PROFILE=YOUR_PROFILE_NAME

Configure your AWS account with the resources necessary for Amazon Braket

If you are new to Amazon Braket, onboard to the service and create the resources necessary to use Amazon Braket using the AWS console.
