Development Hub

OpenQP development, made legible.

Roadmaps, engineering tracks, validation status, release notes, and contributor entry points belong here.

Roadmap

Recommended public structure

Now

Make OpenQP easier to adopt

Polish examples, documentation, installation paths, citation guidance, and visible release notes.

Next

Expose the development pipeline

Publish feature tracks for SOC, EKT, analytic derivatives, QMMM, GPU work, and performance validation.

Later

Connect research and product support

Give collaborators, company partners, and lab members clear paths for contribution, support, and co-development.

Tracks
