Fibers are low-cost substrates that are ubiquitous in our daily lives, and their applications have been extended even further. In recent years, fiber-shaped electronics have attracted considerable attention because of their potential application in wearable textiles. This review discusses the recent advances in fiber-shaped electronics, including fiber-shaped power devices, transistors, and nanogenerators, as well as composite fiber-shaped electronic devices. Moreover, some promising methods in manufacturing fiber and wearable electronics are introduced. Finally, the challenges as well as a number of key areas to focus on are discussed.

► Fiber-electronic devices could be embedded in textile substrates for medical, military, or daily use.
► Macro/microfiber-shaped electronic devices are more convenient to be knitted into textiles, just like knitting a sweater.
► Fiber-shaped power devices can power wearable, mobile, or stationary electronic devices to communicate, light, cool, or heat.
► Fiber-shaped transistors are building blocks for complicated electronic circuits and other functions can be derived from them.
► Various methods used to weave fiber-shaped electronics for large-scale electronic textiles opening new applications.
