Consider dart:convert supoort #13
Description
Something I noticed was that dart:convert has its own codecs that act as stream transformers and can be composed.
Consider including some way to get a Codec out of Codables, and maybe Converters out of Encoders and Decoders
I tried to play around with it, but Im not familiar enough with it to do so

Perhaps it would require shifting the API a bit.
Instead of generating toX and fromX as extensions directly, create a single getter like
Person.codable.jsonand on that would be.codec, or perhaps that itself implements Codec which would allow you to doPerson.codable.json.encode(person)andPerson.codable.json.decode('{...}')And you can always do
Person.codable.json.fuse(utf8)which would let you work with raw bytes instead.I think it has potential.
We could still have to/fromX as conveniences, and only use the code when we care to, but I think there's a benefit.
