how a field marked as 'editable=False' work

When a field is marked as 'editable=False' in the model, it will not appear on the generated form. How is the field initialized and saved into database?

By you, in python code. For example, if your object had a non-editable user field:

form = MyForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
    myobj = form.save(commit=False)
    myobj.user = request.user
    myobj.save()
