An **indexed category** is a generalization of the concept of categories in category theory, which allows for a more structured way to organize objects and morphisms. In traditional category theory, a category consists of a collection of objects and morphisms (arrows) between them. An indexed category extends this by organizing a category according to some indexing set or category, which provides a way to manage multiple copies of a particular structure.
