Abstract High‐entropy materials (HEMs) have been in the spotlight as emerging catalysts for electrochemical water splitting. In particular, HEM feature multi‐element active sites and unsaturated coordination well entropy stabilization comparison with their single‐element counterparts. Herein, a comprehensive overview of used splitting is provided, covering both hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) oxygen (OER). Particularly, review begins discussions concept structure HEMs. addition, effective strategies rationally designing HEMs on basis computational techniques experimental aspects described. Importantly, importance computationally aided methods, that is, density functional theory calculations, high‐throughput screening, machine learning, to discovery design HEMs, Furthermore, applications field electrolysis are reviewed. Eventually, an outlook regarding prospects future opportunities provided.
