We implement a simulation of a recent device-independent quantum key distribution (DIQKD) protocol to investigate its features, especially with respect to the effect of imperfections such as noise or loopholes. The simulation is based on a RESTful API recently introduced by us, capable of implementing nonlocal no-signaling correlations via communication with a server instead of making measurements on quantum systems. The presented framework can be used in development projects for testing and experimenting, before putting a DIQKD-based solution into production, replacing the API with actual quantum devices.
