 # Dependencies
-Support for additional optimizers or quantum backends can be activated by intalling them in your environment.
-Tequila will then detect them automatically.
-Currently those are: [Phoenics](https://github.com/aspuru-guzik-group/phoenics)
- and [GPyOpt](https://sheffieldml.github.io/GPyOpt/).
-Quantum backends are treated in the same way.

 You need to install latest GNU compile (at least gcc-7 and g++7) and set them as default before installing qulacs over pip.
