The KPZ universality class is a broad collection of models, which includes directed random polymers, interacting particle systems and random interface growth, characterized by unusual scale of fluctuations which also appear in the random matrix theory. The KPZ fixed point is a scaling invariant Markov process which is the conjectural universal limit of all models in the class. A complete description of the KPZ fixed point was obtained in a joint work with Jeremy Quastel and Daniel Remenik. In this talk I will describe how the KPZ fixed point was derived by solving a special model in the class called TASEP.
