The command "cdk docs" is used with the AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK), which is an open-source software development framework to define cloud infrastructure in code.

When you run the "cdk docs" command, it launches a local web server that serves the documentation website of the CDK. The CDK documentation provides detailed information and examples on how to use the various AWS CDK constructs, such as resources, properties, and methods.

By running "cdk docs," you can access the documentation in your web browser by opening the specified URL. This allows you to browse through the CDK API reference, user guides, tutorials, and other resources to understand and learn effectively how to leverage the CDK for building cloud infrastructure using code.

Running this command can be useful when you need quick access to the CDK documentation and want to consult it offline or avoid switching between your code editor and web browser to refer to the documentation.
