Lamellar molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) has attracted a wide range of research interests in recent years because of its two‐dimensional layered structure, ultrathin thickness, large interlayer distance, adjustable band gap, and capability to form different crystal structures. These special characteristics and high anisotropy have made MoS 2 widely applicable in energy storage and harvesting. In this Minireview, a systematic and comprehensive introduction to MoS 2 , as well as its composites, is presented. It is aimed to summarize the various synthetic methods of MoS 2 ‐based composites and their application in energy‐storage devices (lithium‐ion batteries, sodium‐ion batteries, lithium–sulfur batteries, and supercapacitors) in detail. Based on recent studies, this Minireview provides important and comprehensive guidelines for further study and development efforts in the MoS 2 in energy‐storage field.
