F* proof-oriented programming language
F* is a general-purpose proof-oriented programming language that combines dependent types, SMT-based proof automation, and interactive theorem proving. It supports functional and effectful programming, compiles by default to OCaml, and can also target C, F#, Wasm, or assembly through related toolchains.

LLMs May Automate Proofs in Dependently Typed Languages
The article argues that large language models, combined with proof irrelevance, could significantly reduce the manual effort required in dependently typed languages. It describes a Lean-based experiment building a Zstandard decompressor to test whether LLMs can make proof automation more practical and lessen proof engineering overhead.
