Abstract
We review the construction of chiral four-dimensional compactifications of string theory with different systems of D-branes, including type IIA intersecting D6-branes and type IIB magnetised D-branes. Such models lead to four-dimensional theories with non-abelian gauge interactions and charged chiral fermions. We discuss the application of these techniques to building of models with spectrum as close as possible to the Standard Model, and review their main phenomenological properties.
