The Appian Designer is kind of workspace you can build a Appian application. &lt;br /&gt;
The default view in the Appian Designer is a list of all applications in the environment. From here, you can create or import new applications, modify applications, or drill into a single application to work on the objects associated with it. Drilling into an application brings you to the application designer, where they are presented with a list of the objects associated with the application.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can see the Appian designer documentation from: &lt;a href="https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/18.4/welcome-app-designer.html"&gt;docs.appian.com/.../welcome-app-designer.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
