Is SuperDilithium quantum resistant even though it uses elliptic curve cryptopgraphy? #14

Quick question related to https://github.com/cyph/pqcrypto.js/tree/master/packages/superdilithium. I noticed in the Readme that it says

"SuperDilithium combines the post-quantum Dilithium with the more conventional elliptic-curve (ECC) Ed25519 as a single signing scheme."

Is it still quantum resistant even though it employs Ed25519? Ed25519 is elliptic curve right? Doesn't that mean Shor's algorithm would break it?
