Able to program

Codable describes something that can be represented in code or converted into a systematic format.

In programming, particularly Swift, Codable refers to types that can be encoded to or decoded from external representations like JSON: Make your struct Codable to serialize it easily.

More generally, anything codable can be translated into a structured system: The responses were codable into five categories.
