Coq Alternatives
Coq is described as 'Proof assistant, which allows you to write mathematical proofs in a rigorous and formal way, and have them checked for correctness by the computer. It also allows programming with proofs of correctness for the code, and dependent types' and is an app in the education & reference category. There are three alternatives to Coq for Mac, Windows, Linux and Web-based. The best Coq alternative is F*, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like Coq are Isabelle and Agda.
- Free • Open Source
- 6 F* alternatives
F* is an ML-like functional programming language aimed at program verification. F* can express precise specifications for programs, including functional correctness properties. Programs written in F* can be translated to OCaml or F# for execution.

Comments about Isabelle as an Alternative to Coq
Makarius WenzelAdvanced technology and tooling.
- 3 Agda alternatives
Agda is a dependently typed functional programming language. It has inductive families, i.e., data types which depend on values, such as the type of vectors of a given length. It also has parametrised modules, mixfix operators, Unicode characters, and an interactive Emacs...
Its logic is weaker (simply-typed HOL), but its tooling is much more developed: Prover IDE, integration of automated reasoning systems via Sledgehammer, many add-on tools, big Archive of Formal Proofs
