My Index Management Screen

I want to have a better understanding of what each entry does and what happens when it requires a reindex.
I've read the Magento Docs fully but they aren't known for breaking down things into the most understandable pieces. I know the difference/functionality of update on save and scheduled. Just not quite sure what it is doing behind the scenes.

Specifically, I do not understand what the entries for :
Rebuild Design Config index and Rebuild customer grid index are for.
Is there a directory I can locate these files in and change them manually?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

  • Yes I did. However, my question still remains unanswered.. what are the design config and customer grid index for? And where is the actually directory for these or the data found?

Magento use flat table customer_grid_flat for customer grid so when you rebuild index for customer grid it will take data from eav tables and put data here in flat table for customer.

I can't see design config in my setup. It seems to be available after some changes.
