Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detectors, or MKIDs, are non‐equilibrium superconducting detectors made out of high quality factor superconducting microwave resonant circuits. Their primary advantage over other low temperature detector technologies is their built‐in frequency domain multiplexing at GHz frequencies, allowing thousands of detectors to be read out through a single transmission line. MKIDs are now celebrating their tenth birthday, so this review aims to sum up what has been learned over the first decade and explore the diversity of current MKID projects.
