The '''Ecstasy''' programming language ('''xtclang''') is designed to support the efficient composition of secure applications, long-term maintainable infrastructure, and the efficient low-cost deployment exemplified by the serverless cloud. The language was created by xqiz.it, developed within the open source "Ecstasy Project" organization, and freely licensed using the business-friendly Apache 2 open source license.
One or more Ecstasy source files (`.x` files) are [[Compiler|compiled]] to an intermediate [[bytecode]] executable (`.xtc` file) and executed by the XTC Virtual Machine (XVM). The bytecode is a mid-level IR designed to be efficiently lowered to native machine code by a combination of ahead-of-time compilation and an adaptive JIT.
