I've recently learned about the existence of Homotopy type theory. The subject seems very interesting. I'm wondering about prerequisites, and good introductory books. To give some context, I have a masters in applied mathematics, and I'm currently undertaking a phd also in applied math, with focus on applied category theory. References, tips, and comments are very welcomed .

The free HoTT book is the canonical introduction. There are lots of videos of talks on YouTube, at various levels.

There are probably lots of other introductory materials that experts here will know about.
