F* existed before Project Everest, but Everest did power a lot of its development.

We have built verified systems and components in the TLS ecosystem, including parts of TLS, QUIC and related protocols, and continue to do so: https://project-everest.github.io/

* Verified crypto in Linux, Firefox, Python, ... https://github.com/hacl-star/hacl-star
