What storage methods for objects exist in the iOS platform?

Answer from AI
In iOS, objects can be stored in several ways:
- UserDefaults — for storing small settings and simple data (strings, numbers, boolean values).
- File system — saving files in the application's directories (Documents, Caches, etc.).
- Core Data — an object-oriented database for complex structured data.
- Keychain — secure storage for confidential data, such as passwords.
- NSCoding / Codable — serialization of objects into files or UserDefaults.
Example of saving a string in UserDefaults:
UserDefaults.standard.set("Example", forKey: "myKey")
The choice of method depends on the volume, structure, and security requirements of the data.
