I'd like to contribute. But where do I start?

I see several repositories but don't know which ones need contributors.

Hi @yu289333, thanks for your interest in OQD! To help give some advice on where to contribute, what's your background and interest?

Some possible contributions could be using the oqd-core libraries to program different analog Hamiltonians and write example notebooks, building visualization tools in the analog or atomic interfaces, or helping to build new compiler passes, among others.

A good first contribution could be to use the framework and implement your own favourite quantum system in equilux and adding it to our doc examples :)

@benjimaclellan Thanks for the note. My background is a former researcher (quantum optics and semiconductor physics) and a practicing communication engineer. I can code but am a bad coder. Physics is not a problem for me. And I'm familiar with the textbook quantum algorithms and protocols (Shor, Grover, Simon, HHL). But I hope to learn the practical algorithms better. I could use the oqd-core libraries to program different analog Hamiltonians. But it'd be good if someone can guide me to the relevant algorithms. Writing example notebooks is an option. I can write textbook examples. But I'd be better if someone can guide me to practical examples.

Where can i find the CAD files of OQD
