- But there is a widely known convention that properties starting with an underscore "_" are internal and should not be touched from outside the object.
- There are two kinds of object properties.
- From the outside, an accessor property looks like a regular one.
- Getters/setters can be used as wrappers over “real” property values to gain more control over operations with them.
- For instance, if we want to forbid too short names for user, we can have a setter name and keep the value in a separate property _name
