For years, folks thought Qiskit was the quantum equivalent of a breadboard, great for teaching, not for real work.
I always disagreed.
Now you donโ€™t have to take my word for it. This Nature Computational Science paper makes it falsifiable: Qiskit is the best production-grade SDK on the market.

About SemVer docs.quantum.ibm.com/open-source/... :

๐Ÿ Qiskit v2 is not backwards compatible with Qiskit v1. Upgrading blindly with `pip install -U qiskit` might break your code.

๐Ÿฆฅ Qiskit v1.4 will receive bug fixes until Sept 2025. Use it as a transitional version `pip install -U qiskit>=1.4,<2`

Qiskit does not do it *that* differently. The last stage of the compilation is scheduling and it's similar to your circuit-to-pulse compiler.
