  This survey paper, written in spanish, is an extended version of lecture
notes for a mini-course taught at the 2022 Summer School in Geometric Group
Theory, which took place in the Centro de Ciencias Matem\'aticas in Morelia,
Mexico in July 2022. Its main aim is to give an introduction to the study of
non-positively curved cube complexes, and through these, to introduce the
reader to geometric group theory.
