Decodes instances of Decodable types from application/x-www-form-urlencoded Data.

print(data) // "name=Vapor&age=3"
let user = try URLEncodedFormDecoder().decode(User.self, from: data)
print(user) // User

URL-encoded forms are commonly used by websites to send form data via POST requests. This encoding is relatively efficient for small amounts of data but must be percent-encoded. multipart/form-data is more efficient for sending large data blobs like files.

See Mozilla’s docs for more information about url-encoded forms.

Encodes Encodable instances to application/x-www-form-urlencoded data.

print(user) /// User
let data = try URLEncodedFormEncoder().encode(user)
print(data) /// Data
