With the introduction of Swift 4, Apple has announced lots of new features. Introduction of Codable Protocols was most welcomed and most anticipated feature among all. In this video series we will take a deep dive into codable protocol and going to see how it works for various different scenarios.

This course is all about code examples to explain codable, encodable, decodable protocols in detail. This course will show you how you can perform JSON serialization and deserialization in object oriented manner.

About Codable Protocol in Apple's Own Words:

Many programming tasks involve sending data over a network connection, saving data to disk, or submitting data to APIs and services. These tasks often require data to be encoded and decoded to and from an intermediate format while the data is being transferred.

The Swift standard library defines a standardized approach to data encoding and decoding. You adopt this approach by implementing the Encodable and Decodable protocols on your custom types. Adopting these protocols lets implementations of the Encoder and Decoderprotocols take your data and encode or decode it to and from an external representation such as JSON or property list. To support both encoding and decoding, declare conformance to Codable, which combines the Encodable and Decodable protocols. This process is known as making your types codable.
