The goal is to provide an alternative to the great |tikzit| package: we wanted a solution that does not require the creation of an additional file, the use of an external software, and which automatically adapts the width of columns and rows depending on the content of the nodes (in |tikzit| one needs to manually tune the position of each node, especially when dealing with large nodes). Our library also provides a default style and tries to separate the content from the style: that way it should be easy to globally change the styling of a given project without redesigning all diagrams. However, it should be fairly easy to combine tikzit and this library: when some diagrams are easier to design in tikzit, then it should be possible to directly load the style of this library inside tikzit.

The documentation is also a work in progress, so feel free to check the code to discover new functionalities.

If this library is not yet packaged into CTAN (which is very likely in 2021), you must first download \mylink{https://github.com/leo-colisson/zx-calculus/blob/main/tikzlibraryzx-calculus.code.tex}{\texttt{tikzlibraryzx-calculus.code.tex}} and \mylink{https://github.com/leo-colisson/zx-calculus/blob/main/zx-calculus.sty}{\texttt{zx-calculus.sty}} (right-click on ``Raw'' and ``Save link as'') and save them at the root of your project.
+\section{Quickstart}
+
+You can create a diagram either with |\zx[options]{matrix}| or with:
+\begin{verse}
+ |\begin{ZX}[options]|\\
+ | matrix|\\
+ |\end{ZX}|
+\end{verse}
+The matrix is composed of columns separated by |&| and rows separated by |\\|. This matrix is basically a \tikzname{} matrix of nodes (even better, a |tikz-cd| matrix, so you can use all the machinary of |tikz-cd|), so cells can be created using \verb#|tikz style| content#. However, the users does not usually need to use this syntax since many nodes like |\zxZ{spider phase}| have been created for them (including |\zxN{}| which is an empty node):
+
+\begin{codeexample}[width=0pt]
+\begin{ZX}
+ \zxZ{} & \zxZ{\alpha} & \zxZ-{\alpha} & \zxZ{\alpha+\beta} & \zxFracZ{\pi}{2} & \zxFracZ-{\pi}{2}\\
+ \zxX{} & \zxX{\alpha} & \zxX-{\alpha} & \zxX{\alpha+\beta} & \zxFracX{\pi}{2} & \zxFracX-{\pi}{2}\\
+ \zxN{} & \zxH{}
+\end{ZX}
+\end{codeexample}
+
+Note that if a node has no argument like |\zxN|, you should still end it like |\zxN{}| to make sure you code will be backward compatible and will behave correctly.
+
+To link the nodes, you should use |\arrow[options]| (|\ar[options]| for short) at the end of a cell (you can put many arrows). The options can contain a direction, made of a string of |r| (for ``right''), |l| (for ``left''), |d| (for `down''), |u| (for ``up'') letters. That way, |\ar[rrd]| would be an arrow going right, right, and down:
+\begin{codeexample}[]
+\begin{ZX}
+ \zxZ{} \ar[rrd] & \zxX{}\\
+ & & \zxX-{\alpha}
+\end{ZX}
+\end{codeexample}
+See how the alignment of your matrix helps reading it: in emacs |M-x align| is your friend. You may also encounter some shortcuts, like |\rar| instead of |\ar[r]|. Since straight lines are boring, we created many styles that you can just add in the options. For instance, a measured Bell-pair can be created using the |C| style (note also how the |*| argument forces the node to be tighter):
+\begin{codeexample}[]
+\begin{ZX}
+ \zxZ*{a \pi} \ar[d,C]\\
+ \zxZ*{b \pi}
+\end{ZX}
+\end{codeexample}
+The name of the style usually tries to graphically represent the shape of a node (here it looks like a |C|). We also introduce many other styles, like |N| for wires that arrive and leave at wide angle (yeah, the |N| is the best letter I could find to fit that shape):
+\begin{codeexample}[]
+\begin{ZX}
+ \zxN{} & \zxZ{\beta}\\
+ \zxZ{\alpha} \ar[ru,N] \ar[rd,N] &\\
+ & \zxZ{\gamma}
+\end{ZX}
+\end{codeexample}
+Or |s| for wires that arrive and leave at sharp angles (the |\zxN{}| is used because it seems that the first cell of a matrix can't be empty):
+\begin{codeexample}[]
+\begin{ZX}
+ \zxN{} & \zxZ{\beta}\\
+ \zxZ{\alpha} \ar[ru,s] \ar[rd,s] &\\
+ & \zxZ{\gamma}
+\end{ZX}
+\end{codeexample}
+You have then different variations of a style depending on the shape and/or direction of it. For instance, if we want the arrival of the |N| wire to be flat, use |N-|:
+\begin{codeexample}[]
+\begin{ZX}
+ \zxZ{\alpha} \ar[rd,N-] \\
+ & \zxZ{\beta}
+\end{ZX}
+\end{codeexample}
+Similarly |o'| is a style for wires that have the shape of the top part of the circle, and comes with variations depending on the part of the circle that must be kept:
+\begin{codeexample}[width=0pt]
+\begin{ZX}
+ \zxZ{\alpha} \ar[r,o',green] \ar[r,o.,red] \ar[d,o-,blue] \ar[d,-o,purple] & \zxZ{\beta}\\
+ \zxZ{\beta}
+\end{ZX}
+\end{codeexample}
+Note that the position of the embellishments (|'|, |-|, |.|\dots{}) tries to graphically represent the shape of the node. That way |-o| means ``take the left part (position of |-|) or the circle |o|''. Applied to |C|, this gives:
+\begin{codeexample}[]
+\begin{ZX}
+ \zxX{} \ar[d,C] \ar[r,C'] & \zxZ{} \ar[d,C-]\\
+ \zxZ{} \ar[r,C.] & \zxX{}
+\end{ZX}
+\end{codeexample}
+
+You also have styles which automatically add another node in between, for instance |H| adds a Hadamard node in the middle of the node:
+\begin{codeexample}[]
+\begin{ZX}
+ \zxZ{\alpha} \ar[r,o',H] \ar[r,o.,H] &[\zxHCol] \zxZ{\beta}
+\end{ZX}
+\end{codeexample}
+Note that we used also |&[\zxHCol]| instead of |&| (on the first line). This is useful to add an extra space between the columns to have a nicer look. The same apply for rows (see the |*Row| instead of |*Col|):
+\begin{codeexample}[]
+\begin{ZX}
+ \zxZ{\alpha} \ar[d,-o,Z] \ar[d,o-,X] \\[\zxSRow]
+ \zxX{\beta}
+\end{ZX}
+\end{codeexample}
+The reason for this is that it is hard to always get exactly the good spacing by default (for instance here \tikzname{} has no idea that a |H| node will be inserted when it starts to build the diagram), and sometimes the spacing needs some adjustments. However, while you could manually tweak this space using something like |&[1mm]| (it adds |1mm| to the column space), it is better to use some pre-configured spaced that can be (re)-configured document-wise to keep a uniform spacing. You could define your own spacing, but we already provide a list for the most important spacings. They all start with |zx|, then you find the type of space: |H| for Hadamard, |S| for spiders, |W| when you connect only |\zxNone| nodes (otherwise the diagram will be too shrinked), |w| when one side of the row contains only |\zxNone|\dots{} and then you find |Col| (for columns spacing) or |Row| (for rows spacing). For instance we can use the |\zxNone| style (|\zxN| for short) style and the above spacing to obtain this:
+\begin{codeexample}[]
+\begin{ZX}
+ \zxN{} \rar &[\zxwCol] \zxH{} \rar &[\zxwCol] \zxN{}
+\end{ZX}
+\end{codeexample}
+\noindent or that:
+\begin{codeexample}[]
+\begin{ZX}
+ \zxN{} \ar[d,C] \ar[dr,s] &[\zxWCol] \zxN{} \\[\zxWRow]
+ \zxN{} \ar[ru,s] & \zxN{} \\
+\end{ZX}
+\end{codeexample}
+
+
+When writing equations, you may also want to change the baseline to align properly your diagrams on a given line like that:
+\begin{codeexample}[]
+ $\zx[math baseline=myZ]{
+ \zxX{}\\
+ \zxZ[a=myZ]{}
+ }
+ = \zx{\zxX{} & \zxZ{}}$
+\end{codeexample}
+
+We also provide easy methods like |phase in label right| to change the labelling of a note (per-node, per-picture or document wise) to move the phase in a label automatically:
+\begin{codeexample}[]
+ \begin{ZX}[phase in label right]
+ \zxZ{\alpha} \arrow[d] \\
+ \zxFracX-{\pi}{4}
+ \end{ZX}
+\end{codeexample}
+
+Now you should know enough to start your first diagrams. The rest of the documentation will go through all the styles, customizations and features, including the one needed to obtain:
+\begin{codeexample}[width=3cm]
+\begin{ZX}
+ \leftManyDots{n} \zxX{\alpha} \zxLoopAboveDots{} \middleManyDots{} \ar[r,o'={a=75}]
+ & \zxX{\beta} \zxLoopAboveDots{} \rightManyDots{m}
+\end{ZX}
+\end{codeexample}

- |s| is used to create a s-like wire, to have nicer soften diagonal lines between nodes. Other versions are soften versions (the input and output angles are not as sharp, and the difference angle can be configured as an argument or globally using |\zxDefaultSoftAngleS|). Adding |'| or |.| specifies if the wire is going up-right or down-right.
+ Usually each wire should properly use these functions, so the end user should not need that too often (during a first reading, you can skip this paragraph). We added 4 anchors to nodes: |fake center north|, |fake center south|, |fake center east| and |fake center west|. These anchors are used to determine the starting point of the wires depending on the direction of the wire (I tried to use more complex methods to ensure the wires would start on the boundary, but \mylink{https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/619274}{they all fail}). Because some nodes may not have these anchors, we can't directly set |start anchor=fake center north, on layer=edgelayer| (but the user can do that if they are using only nodes with these anchors) or the code may fail on some nodes. For that reason, we check that these anchors exist while drawing our wires (which, at the best of my knowledge, can only be done while drawing the path). The |start/end fake center *| code is responsible to configure that properly (|start real center| will use the real center), and |left to right| (and similar) just configure both the |start| and |end| point to ensure the node starts at the appropriate anchor. However this won't work for style not defined in this library: in case you are sure that these anchors exists and want to use your own wire styles, you can then set the anchors manually and use |on layer=edgelayer|, or use |force left to right| (and similar) which will automatically do that for the |start| and |end| points.

+ The next wires can take multiple options. They are all based on the same set of options for now, namely |/zx/args/-andL/|. The |1*| options are used to configure the starting point, the |2*| to configure the ending point, if no number is given both points are updated. |-| and |L| are used to place two anchors of a Bezier curve. They are expressed in relative distance (so they are typically between $0$ and $1$, but can be pushed above $1$ or below $0$ for stronger effects), |-| is typically on the |x| axis and |L| on the |y| axis (the name represents ``graphically'' the direction). They are however not named |x| and |y| because some wires use them slighlty differently, notably |o| which uses |-| for the direction of the arrow and |L| for the direction perpendicular to the arrow (again the shape of |L| represents a perpendicular line). Each wire interprets |-| and |L| to ensure that $0$ should lead to a straight line, and that a correct shape is obtained when |1-| equals |2-|, |1L| equals |2L| (except for non-symmetric shapes of course), and both |-| and |L| are positive.
+
+ The other expressions involving |angle| (or the shortcut |a|) allow you to define |1-|,|1L|\dots{} using a maybe more intuitive ``polar'' notation, i.e.\ an ``angle'' and a relative length (if not specified, like in |1 angle|, the length defaults to $0.6$). Note that the angle is not really an angle (it is an angle only when the nodes are placed at $45$ degrees, or for the |bezier x/y| variations), but a ``squeezed angle'' (when nodes are not at $45$ degrees, the shape is squeezed horizontally or vertically not to change the wire) and similarly for the length. In the above list, the meaning of each expression should be clear from the name: for instance |1angle and length={45}{.8}| will setup a squeezed angle of $45$ and a relative length of $.8$ for the first point, i.e.\ this is equivalent to $1-=.8\cos(45)$ and $1L=.8\sin(45)$, and |angle=45| will change the angle of both points to $45$, with a relative length of $.6$. In the above list, each long expression has below it a shorter version, for intance |a=45| is equivalent to |angle=45|.
+
+ The last expressions (|symmetry-L|, |symmetry|\dots) are used internally to do some math. Of course if you need to do symmetries at some point you can use these keys (|symmetry-L| exchange |-| and |L|, and |symmetry| exchanges |1| and |2|), |negateX| just negates |X| and |oneMinusX| replaces |X| with |1-X|. Each of the following nodes have default values which can be configured as explained in \cref{subsec:wirecustom}.

+ To create a bezier wire. These styles are not really meant to be used for the final user because they are long to type and would not be changed document-wise when the style is changed, but most styles are based on these styles. For the |bezier 4 *| versions, the two first arguments are the relative position of the first anchor (|x| and |y| position), the next two of the second anchor. In the |bezier *| versions, the value of |1-| will be the relative |x| position of the first point, |1L| the relative position of the second, and |2-| and |2L| will be for the second point (the advantage of this is that it is also possible to specify angles using |1al={angle}{length}|\dots{} as explained in the |-andL| syle). They are said to be relative in the sense that |{0}{0}| is the coordinate of the first point, and |{1}{1}| the second point. The |bezier x| and |bezier 4 y| are useful when the node are supposed to be horizontally or vertically aligned: the distance are now expressed as a fraction of the horizontal (respectively vertical) distance between the two nodes. Using relative coordinates has the advantage that if the nodes positions are moved, the aspect of the wire does not change (it is just squeezed), while this is not true with |in|/|out| wires which preserves angles but not shapes.

+\begin{stylekey}{/zx/wires definition/IO}
+As explained above, wires were first defined using |in|, |out| and |looseness|, but this turned out to be sometimes hard to use since the shape of the wire was changing depending on the position. For example consider the differences between the older version:

+\end{ZX}
+\end{codeexample}
+This example led to the creation of the |bn| style, in order to try to find appropriate looseness values depending on the case\dots{} but it is harder to use and results are less predictable.
+
+The new method also allowed us to use |N| for both |N.| and |N'| styles (however we kept both versions for backward compatibility and in case later we want to make a distinction between nodes going doing or up).
+
+However, if you prefer the old style, you can just use them by adding |IO,| in front of the style name (styles are nested inside |IO|). Note however that the customization options are of course different.

+\subsection{Wires starting inside or on the boundary of the node}\label{subsec:wiresInsideOutside}
+
+This library provides multiple methods to draw the wires between the nodes (for all curves depending on |bezier|, which is basically everything but |C| and straight lines).
+
+\paragraph{Default drawing method.}
+By default the lines will be drawn behind the node and the starting and ending points will be defined to be a |fake center *| anchor (if it exists, the exact chosen anchors (north, south\dots{}) depending on the direction). Because this anchor lies behind the node, we put them on the |edgelayer| layer. For debugging purpose, it can be practical to display them:

This is mostly useful to understand how lines are drawn and for debugging purpose.
+\begin{codeexample}[]

+ \zx{\zxZ{\alpha+\beta} \ar[dr,s] \\
+ & \zxZ{\alpha+\beta}}
+ What is drawn:
+ \zx{\zxZ{\alpha+\beta} \ar[dr,edge above,s] \\
+ & \zxZ{\alpha+\beta}}

+ \extractkey/zx/wires definition/control points not visible\@nil%
+ \makeatother
+ \pgfmanualbody
+ Similarly, it can be useful for debugging to see the control points of the curves (note that |C|, straight lines and |(| wires are not based on our curve system, so it won't do anything for them). If the macro |\zxControlPointsVisible| is defined (using |\def\zxEdgesAbove{}|) control points will be drawn. To change it on a per-edge basis, use |control points visible| (or its contrary |control points not visible|). This is mostly useful to understand how lines are drawn and for debugging purpose.
+\begin{codeexample}[]
+ Controls not visible:
+ \zx{\zxZ{\alpha+\beta} \ar[dr,s] \\
+ & \zxZ{\alpha+\beta}}
+ Control visible:
+ \zx{\zxZ{\alpha+\beta} \ar[dr,control points visible,s] \\
+ & \zxZ{\alpha+\beta}}
+ Control visible + edge above:
+ \zx{\zxZ{\alpha+\beta} \ar[dr,edge above,control points visible,s] \\
+ & \zxZ{\alpha+\beta}}
+\end{codeexample}
+\textbf{WARNING}: this command adds some points in the wire path, and in particular if you have a |H| wire (Hadamard in the middle of the wire), this option will not place it correctly. But it's not really a problem since it's just to do a quick debugging.
+\end{pgfmanualentry}
+
+Unfortunately, the default drawing method also has drawbacks. For instance, when using the |H| edge between a spider and an empty node, the ``middle'' of the edge will appear too close to the center by default (we draw the first edge above to illustrate the reason of this visual artifact):
+\begin{codeexample}[width=0cm]
+\begin{ZX}
+ \zxN{} \ar[rd,edge above,-N.,H] &[\zxwCol,\zxHCol] &[\zxwCol,\zxHCol] \zxN{} \\[\zxNRow]%%
+ & \zxX{\alpha}
+ \ar[ru,N'-,H]
+ \ar[rd,N.-,H] & \\[\zxNRow]
+ \zxN{} \ar[ru,-N',H] & & \zxN{}
+\end{ZX}
+\end{codeexample}
+To solve that issue, you need to manually position the |H| node as shown before:
+\begin{codeexample}[width=0cm]
+\begin{ZX}
+ \zxN{} \ar[rd,edge above,-N.,H={pos=.35}] &[\zxwCol,\zxHCol] &[\zxwCol,\zxHCol] \zxN{} \\[\zxNRow]%%
+ & \zxX{\alpha}
+ \ar[ru,N'-,H={pos=1-.35}]
+ \ar[rd,N.-,H={pos=1-.35}] & \\[\zxNRow]
+ \zxN{} \ar[ru,-N',H={pos=.35}] & & \zxN{}
+\end{ZX}
+\end{codeexample}
+Or manually position the anchor outside the node (you can use angles, centered on the real center on the shape), but be aware that it can change the shape of the node (see below):
+\begin{codeexample}[width=0cm]
+\begin{ZX}
+ \zxN{} \ar[rd,edge above,-N.,H,end anchor=180-45] &[\zxwCol,\zxHCol] &[\zxwCol,\zxHCol] \zxN{} \\[\zxNRow]%%
+ & \zxX{\alpha}
+ \ar[ru,N'-,H,start anchor=45]
+ \ar[rd,N.-,H,start anchor=-45] & \\[\zxNRow]
+ \zxN{} \ar[ru,-N',H,end anchor=180+45] & & \zxN{}
+\end{ZX}
+\end{codeexample}
+
+A second drawback is that it is not possible to add arrows on the curved wires (except |C| which uses a different approach), since they will be hidden behind the node:
+\begin{codeexample}[]
+ What you see:
+ \zx{\zxZ{\alpha+\beta} \ar[dr,s,<->] \\
+ & \zxZ{\alpha+\beta}}
+ What is drawn:
+ \zx{\zxZ{\alpha+\beta} \ar[dr,edge above,s,<->] \\
+ & \zxZ{\alpha+\beta}}
+\end{codeexample}
+Here, the only solution (without changing the drawing mode) is to manually position the anchor as before\dots{} but note that on nodes with a large content |45| degrees is actually nearly on the top since the angle is not taken from a fake center but from the real center of the node.
+\begin{codeexample}[]
+ \zx{\zxZ{\alpha+\beta} \ar[dr,s,<->,start anchor=-45,end anchor=180-45] \\
+ & \zxZ{\alpha+\beta}}
+ \zx{\zxZ{\alpha+\beta} \ar[dr,s,<->,start anchor=-15,end anchor=180-15] \\
+ & \zxZ{\alpha+\beta}}
+\end{codeexample}
+ Note that the shape of the wire may be a bit different since the ending and leaving parts was hidden before, and the current styles are not designed to look nicely when starting on the border of a node. For that reason, you may need to tweak the style of the wire yourself using |-|, |L| options.
+
+ \paragraph{The ``intersection'' drawing methods}
+
+ We also define other modes to draw wires (they are very new and not yet tested a lot). In the first mode, appropriate |fake center *| is taken, then depending on the bezier control points, a point is taken on the border of the shape (starting from the fake center and using the direction of the bezier control point). Then the node is drawn. Here is how to enable this mode:

+ \makeatother
+ \pgfmanualbody
+ The simpler method to enables or disable intersections is to call |\zxEnableIntersections{}| or |\zxDisableIntersections{}| (potentially in a group to have a local action only). Note that \emph{this does not automatically adapt the styles}, see |ui| to adapt the styles automatically.
+\begin{codeexample}[width=0cm]

+(The |edge above| is just to show that the wire does not go inside.) However, this method enable intersections for the whole drawing. You can disable it for a single arrow using the |dont use intersections| style. But it is possible instead to enable it for a single wire. To do that, first define |\def\zxEnableIntersectionsNodes{}| (it will automatically add a |name path| on each node. If you don't care about optimizations, you can just define it once at the beginning of your project), and then use |use intersections| on the wires which should use intersections:

+ This method has however a few drawbacks. One of the first reason that explains why we don't use it by default is that it is quite long to compute (it involves the |intersections| library to obtain the bezier point to start at and my code may also be not very well optimized as I'm a beginner with \LaTeX{} and \tikzname{} programming\dots{} and what a strange language!). Secondly, it has not yet been tested a lot. Note also that the default wire styles have not been optimized for this setup and the results may vary compared to the default drawing mode (sometimes they are ``better'', sometimes they are not). We have however tried to define a second style |/zx/args/-andL/ui/| that have nicer results. To load it, just type |ui| \emph{before the wire style name}, it will automatically load |use intersections| together with our custom styles (see below how to use |user overlay wires| to load it by default):

+
+The same using |control points visible| to check if the good styles are applied:

+Node that we also defined another intersection mechanism, in which the intersection with the node boundary is computed using the line that links the two fake centers of the starting and ending point. To use it, either define |\def\zxIntersectionLineBetweenStartEnd{}| or use the style |intersections between start end| (or to come back to the normal intersection mode |intersections bezier controls|). Note that this just changes the mode of computing intersections, but does not enable intersections, you still need to enable intersections as explained above (for instance using |use intersection|, or |ui| if you also want to load our style). Note however that we don't spent too much effort in this mode as the result is often not really appealing, in particular the |o| shapes, and therefore we designed no special style for it and made only a few tests.

+\subsection{Nested diagrams}
+
+
+If you consider this example:
+
+\begin{codeexample}[]
+Alone \begin{ZX}
+ \zxX{} \rar \ar[r,o'] \ar[r,o.] & \zxZ{}
+\end{ZX} %
+in a diagram %
+\begin{ZX}[math baseline=myb]
+ &[\zxwCol] \zxFracX-{\pi}{2} & \zxX{}
+ \rar
+ \ar[r,o']
+ \ar[r,o.] & \zxZ{} &[\zxwCol]\\
+ \zxN[a=myb]{} \rar & \zxFracZ{\pi}{2} \rar & \zxFracX{\pi}{2} \rar & \zxFracZ{\pi}{2} \rar & \zxN{}
+\end{ZX}
+\end{codeexample}
+
+You can see that the constant looks much wider in the second picture, due to the fact that the nodes below increase the column size. One solution I found for this problem is to use |savebox| to create your drawing \emph{before} the diagram, and then use the |fit| library to include it where you want in the matrix (see below for a command that does that automatically):
+
+\begin{codeexample}[width=0pt]
+%% Create a new box
+\newsavebox{\myZXbox}
+%% Save our small diagram.
+%% Warning: the char '&' cause troubles in functions, so use ampersand replacement
+%% and \& instead:
+\sbox{\myZXbox}{%
+ \zx[ampersand replacement=\&]{ %<-- strange font? this is just an ampersand.
+ \zxX{} \rar \ar[r,o'] \ar[r,o.] \& \zxZ{}
+ }%
+}
+
+$x = \begin{ZX}[
+ execute at end picture={
+ %% Add our initial drawing at the end:
+ \node[fit=(start)(end),yshift=-axis_height] {\usebox{\myZXbox}};
+ },
+ math baseline=myb]
+ &[\zxwCol] \zxFracX-{\pi}{2} & \zxN[a=start]{} & \zxN[a=end]\\
+ \zxN[a=myb]{} \rar & \zxFracZ{\pi}{2} \rar & \zxFracX{\pi}{2} \rar & \zxFracZ{\pi}{2} \rar & \zxN{}
+\end{ZX}$
+\end{codeexample}
+
+Note that this has the advantage of preserving the baseline of the big drawing. However, it is a bit cumbersome to use, so we provide here a wrapper that automatically does the following code (this has not been tested extensively, and may be subject to changes):
+
+\begin{pgfmanualentry}
+ \def\extrakeytext{style, }
+ \extractcommand\zxSaveDiagram\marg{name with backslash}\opt{\oarg{zx options}}\marg{diagram with ampersand \textbackslash\&}\@@
+ \makeatletter% should not be letter for \@@... strange
+ \extractkey/zx/wires definition/use diagram=\marg{name with \textbackslash}\marg{(nodes)(to)(fit)}\@nil%
+ \makeatother
+ \pgfmanualbody
+ Use |\zxSaveDiagram| to save and name a diagram (must be done before the diagram you want to insert this diagram into, also \textbf{do not forget the backslash before the name} and \textbf{replace all} |&| \textbf{in the first diagram with} |\&|. Then, |use diagram| to insert it inside a diagram (the second argument is a list of nodes given to the |fit| library):
+\begin{codeexample}[width=0pt]
+%% v---- note the backslash note the \& ---v
+\zxSaveDiagram{\myZXconstant}{\zxX{} \rar \ar[r,o'] \ar[r,o.] \& \zxZ{}}
+$x = \begin{ZX}[use diagram={\myZXconstant}{(start)(end)}, math baseline=myb]
+ &[\zxwCol] \zxFracX-{\pi}{2} & \zxN[a=start]{} & \zxN[a=end]\\
+ \zxN[a=myb]{} \rar & \zxFracZ{\pi}{2} \rar & \zxFracX{\pi}{2} \rar & \zxFracZ{\pi}{2} \rar & \zxN{}
+\end{ZX}$
+\end{codeexample}
+Note that if you need more space to insert the drawing, you can use |\zxN+[a=start,minimum width=2cm]{}| instead of |\zxN|.

+\section{Futur works}
+
+There is surely many things to improve in this library, and given how young it is there is surely many undiscovered bugs. So feel free to propose ideas or report bugs \mylink{https://github.com/leo-colisson/zx-calculus/issues}{one the github page}. I also would like to provide externalization to boost compilation time. But |tikz-cd| is not really compatible with externalization, so it would need a bit of work (of course, you can always compile your images in a separate file, but it is cumbersome). See potential solutions here: \mylink{https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/171931/}{here}. The intersections code is also quite slow, so I would be curious to check if I can optimize it (the first goal was to make it work). I should also work on the compatibility with tikzit (basically just write tikz configuration files that you can just use and document how to use tikzit with it), or even write a dedicated graphical tool (why not based on tikzit itself, or \mylink{https://tikzcd.yichuanshen.de/}{this tool}). I also want to find a nicer way to merge cells (for now I propose to use the |fit| library but it's not very robust against overlays) and to nest ZX diagrams (see ). And of course fix typos in the documentation and write other styles, including notations not specific to ZX-calculus. Feel free to submit Pull Requests to solve that!

-I'm very grateful of course to everybody that worked on these amazing field which made diagramatic quantum computing possible, and to the many StackExchange users (sorry, I don't want to risk an incomplete list) that helped me to understand a bit more \LaTeX and \tikzname. I also thank Robert Booth for making me realize how my old style was bad, and for giving advices on how to improve it. Thanks to John van de Wetering, whose style has also been a source of inspiration.
