Qymera: Simulating Quantum Circuits using RDBMS

Summary: Qymera repurposes RDBMSs to simulate quantum circuits by translating circuits into SQL, enabling native SQL-based quantum execution. It offers graphical/code circuit building, a benchmarking framework, and seamless integration with classical workflows for research, development, and education.
