  We present Qibo, a new open-source software for fast evaluation of quantum
circuits and adiabatic evolution which takes full advantage of hardware
accelerators. The growing interest in quantum computing and the recent
developments of quantum hardware devices motivates the development of new
advanced computational tools focused on performance and usage simplicity. In
this work we introduce a new quantum simulation framework that enables
developers to delegate all complicated aspects of hardware or platform
implementation to the library so they can focus on the problem and quantum
algorithms at hand. This software is designed from scratch with simulation
performance, code simplicity and user friendly interface as target goals. It
takes advantage of hardware acceleration such as multi-threading CPU, single
GPU and multi-GPU devices.
