Abstract Through performing a detailed literature review, this study offers a comprehensive analysis of Smart Cities, with a particular emphasis on the integration of technology in order to encourage sustainable urban development. By making use of scholarly contributions, this endeavour seeks to develop a theoretical framework that encompasses existing knowledge and highlights areas that require additional research. With conducting an in-depth literature review and methodically analyzing important academic works, a broad theoretical framework is constructed. This methodology emphasizes the significance of literature reviews in establishing fundamental theories and identifying gaps in existing research, thus laying the groundwork for subsequent investigations into Smart Cities. The results indicate a comprehensive comprehension of Smart City endeavours, with a particular focus on the pivotal influence of contextual elements on final results. The research emphasizes the capacity of Smart Cities to improve urban sustainability, while also drawing attention to the socioeconomic inequalities that may result from the integration of technology. This highlights the critical nature of inclusive planning and the significance of mitigating the digital divide. In overall, this research contributes to the ongoing dialogue surrounding Smart Cities by advocating for an equitable approach that takes into account technological progress and social justice. This viewpoint proposes a proactive approach to urban development, placing particular emphasis on the imperative of sustainability and inclusiveness as Smart Cities progress. Subsequent investigations ought to integrate empirical data and engage in participatory planning in order to surmount identified constraints and improve the execution of Smart City endeavors. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2025.
