In addition to the project itself being very cool and useful (you can count the number of verified SAT solvers that can solve most problems in modern SAT competitions on two fingers!), it's also an impressive demonstration of its toolchain, which essentially exploits the fact that the purely safe fragment of Rust (augmented with a handful of types that use unsafe code like Vec, which I believe have been proven compatible with the rest of Creusot in another recent paper) behaves like a functional language. This allows borrow-checked Rust code to be treated purely functionally in safe contexts…
