'''Euphoria''' is a [[programming language]] created by Robert Craig of Rapid Deployment Software<ref name=rehomepage/> in [[Toronto]], [[Ontario]], Canada. Initially developed (though not publicly released) on the [[Atari ST]],<ref name=atari1/> the first commercial release<ref name=firstversion/> was for [[MS-DOS]] as [[proprietary software]]. In 2006, with the release of version 3,<ref name=opensource/> Euphoria became [[open-source software]]. The openEuphoria Group continues to administer and develop the project.<ref name=oehomepage/>  In December 2010, the openEuphoria Group released version 4<ref name=oedownload/> of openEuphoria along with a new identity and mascot for the project. OpenEuphoria is currently available for [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]], [[Linux]], [[macOS]] and three flavors of [[Berkeley Software Distribution#Significant BSD descendants|*BSD]].

Euphoria is a general-purpose [[High-level programming language|high-level]] [[Imperative programming|imperative-procedural]] [[interpreter (computing)|interpreted]] language. A [[translator (computers)|translator]] generates [[C (programming language)|C]] [[source code]] and the [[GNU compiler collection]] (GCC) and [[Open Watcom]] compilers are supported. Alternatively, Euphoria programs may be bound<ref name=binding/> with the interpreter to create stand-alone [[executable]]s. A number of [[graphical user interface]] (GUI) libraries are supported including Win32lib<ref name=win32lib/> and [[wrapper function|wrappers]] for [[wxWidgets]],<ref name=wxeuphoria/> [[GTK+]]<ref name=GTK/> and [[IUP (software)|IUP]].<ref name=IUP/> Euphoria has a simple built-in [[database]]<ref name=database/> and wrappers for a variety of other databases.<ref name=oedatabases/>
