In this episode, Arthur Vickers and Jiri Cincura from the EF team discuss everything about mapping properties in EF Core. We’ll look at:

- The differences between properties and navigations.

- How EF decides to map a property, and whether it is mapped to a nullable column, has a max length defined, etc.

- When backing fields are used, and mapping fields directly.

- Shadow properties.

- Indexer properties.

And if we get time, we’ll look at how value converters influence all this!
