The transition from the old Xanadu Quantum Codebook to the new PennyLane Codebook will finalize on December 31st, 2024, at 11:59 AM ET. Make sure to port your solutions👇
In May 2024, we launched the new and improved PennyLane Codebook 🚀 It incorporates your valuable feedback with features such as progress tracking, a fresh immersive interface, and brand-new content! To complete the transition over to the new PennyLane Codebook, we will be sunsetting the old Xanadu Quantum Codebook on December 31, 2024, at 11:59 AM ET. 🌇 Explore the new codebook👇 https://lnkd.in/gnWNm6ga // Have you ported your solutions from the old Xanadu Quantum Codebook to the new one? 👀 This is your last chance. You’ll need to copy and paste your code from the old Xanadu Quantum Codebook to the new PennyLane Codebook. Thank you for being a part of this journey with us!
