Successful preparation of self-assembled systems has long been recognized as a significant achievement in its own right. Inspired by nature's ingenuity, researchers have devoted efforts to understanding and mimicking naturally occurring self-assembled structures and functions to systems composed of non-biological components. This has rendered remarkable developments in regulating interparticle interactions and controlling the spatial arrangement of building blocks to form a wide variety of static 1,2,5 and dynamic selfassemblies. Dynamic assemblies can be moulded into diverse states under suitable external stimuli, exhibiting switchable, 8-10 transient, or oscillating behaviour. Particularly attractive is the design of systems demonstrating periodic responses under non-periodic energy supply, i.e. self-oscillations since they have been envisaged to outperform their steady-state counterparts, especially in the context of catalytic applications. Despite recent advancements in this domain, designing functional and modular self-oscillators presents a formidable challenge -one that holds immense potential for advancing various fields.
