I think that's what it was called, yes.  There was a console version and a
GUI version, both closed-source.  Hopefully they also provide a linkable
library by now; that's what you'd want to ask about.

The Xylo board I was looking at didn't have a large EEPROM attached to its
USB chip, so the loader was required to program the 8051 core on the USB
chip and send the bitfile across to it.  So there are two separate rabbit
holes to explore if you want to base a standalone design on that particular
board.
