iCloud has many parts, only one of which is to host your files synced with and upload from your devices. Read Access iCloud Drive files from your iPhone and other devices for the details. In summary, to interact with your files in iCloud you can use Files on iOS, or Finder on a Mac, or even access your iCloud drive on a browser after signing into iCloud on the web.
iCloud is also a syncing service for your devices and a repository for your iOS backups, among other uses. See iCloud - Official Apple Support for further information on services with iCloud.
