The AWS CDK service enables you to work with AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK) applications, or apps. You can find detailed information about the AWS CDK in the AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK) Developer Guide.

AWS CDK apps are composed of building blocks known as constructs. These building blocks include definitions for your AWS CloudFormation stacks and the AWS resources within them. Using the AWS CDK Explorer, you can see the stacks and resources that are defined in AWS CDK tree view. You can access this view in the Developer Tools pane within the AWS Cloud9 editor.
