AWS CDK or Cloud Development Kit allows you to create and manage your AWS resources programmatically using popular languages like Java, Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, and C#. This concept is also known as IaC (Infrastructure as Code) i.e. manage your infrastructure as code to promote automation and minimize manual errors.

I prefer to use the Cloudformation constructs in CDK to create resources and configuration files to store the configuration of my resources.

This is only one of the many ways to create CDK resources and you can prefer any other approach that suits best to you.

This command is used to generate a Cloudformation template from your code and deploy a Cloudformation Stack to create resources.
