Implementation of Univalence, by Cyril Cohen, Thierry Coquand, Simon Huber, and Anders Mörtberg. “This prototype includes a rudimentary type-checker, with Type:Type (to simplify) which takes univalence as a non interpreted constant. Univalence however has an interpretation in the cubical set model, which is used by the evaluator.” Very interesting!
