<ul data-eligibleForWebStory="true"><li>Kotlin property getters and setters are generated based on the property structure and accessors included.</li><li>Usage of val creates a getter and var creates both getter and setter. No backing field is generated for val properties.</li><li>Back to the field is used inside accessors and is required, like when an initializer is present or lateinit is used.</li><li>Customized accessors can be defined in Kotlin to fine-tune behavior without extra work.</li><li>Visibility can be adjusted for individual accessors, controlling read and write access at the method level.</li><li>Annotations like @JvmField and @JvmStatic impact how Kotlin properties are compiled and interact with Java code.</li><li>Usage of val, var, and annotations can change property behavior and visibility in Java bytecode.</li><li>Property mutability and annotations like @JvmField affect how Kotlin properties are seen and accessed from Java.</li><li>Kotlin's approach to property handling involves interactions between fields, methods, visibility, and annotations.</li><li>Delegated properties in Kotlin also interact with mutability and affect Java bytecode translation.</li></ul>
