Contributions summary:Serj primarily contributed to the project by implementing and testing features related to the `Codable` protocol, specifically focusing on defaulting values when keys are missing.

The user wrote and modified test cases to cover various scenarios, including testing the behavior of default values for booleans, integers, and strings when keys are absent or contain invalid values.
