# GC Extension
## Introduction
Note: Basic support for simple [reference types](https://github.com/WebAssembly/reference-types/blob/master/proposals/reference-types/Overview.md), for [typed function references proposal](https://github.com/WebAssembly/function-references/blob/master/proposals/function-references/Overview.md), and for [type imports](https://github.com/WebAssembly/proposal-type-imports/blob/master/proposals/type-imports/Overview.md) have been carved out into separate proposals which should become the future basis for this proposal.
See [MVP](MVP.md) for a concrete v1 proposal and [Post-MVP](Post-MVP.md) for possible future features.
WARNING: Some contents of this document may have gotten out of sync with the [MVP](MVP.md) design, which is more up-to-date.
### Motivation
* Efficient support for high-level languages
- faster execution
- smaller modules
- the vast majority of modern languages need it
* Provide access to industrial-strength GCs
- at least on the web, VMs already have high performance GCs
