Lasm lets developers write formally verified webapps in Lean

Original: Show HN: Lasm – Write formally verified webapps in Lean for Node/serverless/edge

A developer has released Lasm, an open-source project that lets people write formally verified web applications in the Lean programming language and run them on Node.js, serverless platforms and edge environments. Formal verification uses mathematical proofs to guarantee code behaves correctly, an approach rarely applied to ordinary web development. Hacker News commenters are debating the practicality, performance and use cases of bringing proof-checked code to everyday web apps.

Why now: Combining Lean's formal verification with mainstream web deployment is an unusual and provocative idea that draws scrutiny from developers.
