## Key Strategy

Keys can be encoded to snake_case by setting the strategy:

```swift
var encoder = KeyValueEncoder()
encoder.keyEncodingStrategy = .convertToSnakeCase

// ["first_name": "fish", "surname": "chips"]
let dict = try encoder.encode(Person(firstName: "fish", surname: "chips))
```

And decoded from snake_case:

```swift
var decoder = KeyValueDecoder()
decoder.keyDecodingStrategy = .convertFromSnakeCase

let person = try decoder.decode(Person.self, from: dict)
```

## UserDefaults
Encode and decode [`Codable`](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swift/codable) types with [`UserDefaults`](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/userdefaults):
