  In a Quantum Walk (QW) the "walker" follows all possible paths at once
through the principle of quantum superposition, differentiating itself from
classical random walks where one random path is taken at a time. This
facilitates the searching of problem solution spaces faster than with classical
random walks, and holds promise for advances in dynamical quantum simulation,
biological process modelling and quantum computation. Current efforts to
implement QWs have been hindered by the complexity of handling single photons
and the inscalability of cascading approaches. Here we employ a versatile and
scalable resonator configuration to realise quantum walks with bright classical
light. We experimentally demonstrate the versatility of our approach by
implementing a variety of QWs, all with the same experimental platform, while
the use of a resonator allows for an arbitrary number of steps without scaling
the number of optics. Our approach paves the way for practical QWs with bright
classical light and explicitly makes clear that quantum walks with a single
walker do not require quantum states of light.
