Conformance to this protocol is provided by the @Generable macro. A manual implementation may be used to map values onto properties using different names. To manually initialize your type from generated content, decode the values as shown below:

struct Person: ConvertibleFromGeneratedContent {
    var name: String
    var age: Int

    init(_ content: GeneratedContent) {
        self.name = try content.value(forProperty: "firstName")
        self.age = try content.value(forProperty: "ageInYears")
    }
}
