Unveiling the relation between crystal structure and superconductivity of hydrides becomes a fascinating research area in chemistry and condensed-mater physics. Although much efforts have been made to study chemical reaction between tungsten and hydrogen, the crystal structures, superconductivity, and phase diagram of tungsten hydrides under high pressure have not been fully explored and built thus far. In this work, we carried out extensive structural search on W-H binary compounds through first-principles swarm-intelligence structural search calculations. Besides reproducing the known W-H compounds, a new stoichiometry WH5 with
