/**
* JsProperty marks a field or method that is translated directly into a JavaScript property
* preserving its name.
*
* If it is applied to a method, it will be treated as a property accessor. As a result, instead
* of translating method calls to JsProperty methods as method calls in JS, they will be translated
* as property lookups. When a JsProperty method implemented by a Java class, such methods will be
* generated as property accessor in JavaScript, hence the property access will trigger the
* execution of the matching getter or setter methods.
*
*
JsProperty follows JavaBean style naming convention to extract the default property name. If
* the JavaBean convention is not followed, the name should be set explicitly. For example:
*
*
* - {@code @JsProperty getX()} or {@code @JsProperty isX()} translates as {@code this.x}
*
- {@code @JsProperty setX(int y)} translates as {@code this.x=y}
*
*
* Note: In JavaScript, instance members are defined on the prototype and class members are
* defined on the constructor function of the type which mimics ES6 class style.
