## Abstract I review various phenomena associated with mass‐accreting white dwarfs (WDs) in the view of supersoft X‐ray sources. When the mass‐accretion rate is low (__Ṁ__~acc~ < a few × 10^–7^ M⊙yr^–1^), hydrogen nuclear burning is unstable and nova outbursts occur. A nova is a transient supersoft
