What is codePool in Magento?

codePool is a tag which you have to specify when registering new module in app/etc/modules/Company_Module.xml

There are 3 codePools in Magento: core, community and local, which are resided at app/code/ directory.

Core codePool is used by Magento core team, Community is generally used by 3rd party extensions and Local codePool should be used for in-hour module development and overriding of core and community modules for custom requirement.

So in short, codePool helps Magento to locate module inside app/code/ for processing.
