"F star is an ML-like functional programming language aimed at program verification. Its type system includes polymorphism, dependent types, monadic effects, refinement types, and a weakest precondition calculus. Together, these features allow expressing precise and compact specifications for programs, including functional correctness and security properties. The F star type-checker aims to prove that programs meet their specifications using a combination of SMT solving and manual proofs. Programs written in F star can be translated to OCaml or F# for execution."

And you wonder why you're not getting any traction.

Dafny, though, seems to have the right idea.
