This is the first of a series of two papers in which we present a solution to Manin's Real Multiplication program -- an approach to Hilbert's 12th problem for real quadratic extensions of ℚ -- in positive characteristic, using quantum analogs of the exponential function and the modular invariant. In this first paper, we treat the problem of Hilbert class field generation. If k=\mathbbFq(T) and k∞ is the analytic completion of k, we introduce the quantum modular invariant j\rm qt: k∞\multimap k∞ as a multivalued, modular invariant function. Then if K=k(f)⊂ k∞ is a real quadratic extension of k where f is a quadratic unit, we show that the Hilbert class field H_OK (associated to OK= integral closure of \mathbbFq[T] in K) is generated over K by the product of the multivalues of j\rm qt(f).
