W-symmetry in conformal field theory

We review various aspects of $\cW$-algebra symmetry in two-dimensional conformal field theory and string theory. We pay particular attention to the construction of $\cW$-algebras through the quantum Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction and through the coset construction.
