Verus is a tool for verifying the correctness of code written in Rust

Verus brings formal verification to Rust via SMT solvers and theorem proving, mathematically proving code correctness without runtime overhead.

Verus is a static verification tool for Rust that uses computer-aided theorem proving to formally prove code correctness without runtime overhead. It combines a pure mathematical specification language, classical-logic-based proofs, and Rust's low-level imperative syntax to generate verification conditions that SMT solvers like Z3 can efficiently validate. The framework builds on decades of formal verification research while being tailored specifically for Rust's unique blend of low-level memory control and advanced type safety.
