Hi,

    The Arend proof assistant somehow came to my attention.
Their front page says the following:

[[

Arend

Arend implements a version of homotopy type theory with an interval type, which syntax is similar to cubical type theory. This implies several nice properties of path types and allows for a simple and clean definition of higher inductive types (including recursive ones). To learn more about homotopy features implemented in Arend, see Arend Features.

Arend has a powerful class system, which supports Haskell-style instance inference. Class inheritance can be used to define various hierarchies of (algebraic) structures. For a discussion of the class system, see Arend Features.

Anyone know more about this? Is it a competitor to Coq, Agda, or is it something different?
