The author constructs knot invariants categorifying the quantum knot variants for all representations of quantum groups. He shows that these invariants coincide with previous invariants defined by Khovanov for $\mathfrak{{sl}}_2$ and $\mathfrak{{sl}}_3$ and by Mazorchuk-Stroppel and Sussan for $\mathfrak{{sl}}_n$.
