## What are constructs?
Constructs are classes which define a "piece of system state". Constructs can be composed together to form higher-level building blocks which represent more complex state.
Constructs are often used to represent the *desired state* of cloud applications. For example, in the AWS CDK, which is used to define the desired state for AWS infrastructure using CloudFormation, the lowest-level construct represents a *resource definition* in a CloudFormation template. These resources are composed to represent higher-level logical units of a cloud application, etc.
