• Enable the Plugin Installer in the Plugin Manager
• Choose "Fetch Python Plugins"
• Add a new repository http://qgis.dbsgeo.com/
• Quantumnik should then appear in your plugins list

Or install manually by cloning this repository and copying the quantumnik folder into your QGIS plugins folder, usually located at:

Then enable in your plugin manager.
