1. Preface

Homotopy Type Theory is an exciting and relatively new area of mathematics. The main resource for learning it is a Free/Open Source book with the same name: Homotopy Type Theory: Univalent Foundations of Mathematics. I’m currently reading it and I decided to publish notes that I’m taking from it. For each chapter of the original book we have a corresponding chapter with the same name containing a cheat sheet of theorems of that chapter and some extra notes.
