Introduction to Homotopy Theory- PART 1: UNIVERSAL CONSTRUCTIONS

The goal of this series is to develop homotopy theory from a categorical perspective, alongside the theory of model categories. We do this with the hope of eventually developing stable homotopy theory, a personal goal a passion of mine. I’m going to follow nLab’s notes, but I hope to add to it through my explanations! Prior experience in algebraic topology and category theory may be useful, but if not, most of the concepts can be picked up quickly. PLEASE leave any misconceptions I had or inaccuracies in my video in the comments, and I’ll pin them!
