Favorable scaling of capillary forces at small sizes makes them attractive for micro‐ and nanoscale assembly. In article number 1901677, Kam Sang Kwok, Qi Huang, Massimo Mastrangeli, and David H. Gracias review design principles, theoretical and experimental advances, and applications of 3D assembly by folding, bending, and curving using capillary forces.
