What annotations do you use to denote entities in the code?

In Java, to denote entities in code, especially when working with ORM (such as Hibernate or JPA), the @Entity annotation is used. It indicates that the class is an entity and will be mapped to a database table.

Example:

import javax.persistence.Entity;
import javax.persistence.Id;

@Entity
public class User {
    @Id
    private Long id;
    private String name;
    // getters and setters
}

Also, annotations like @Table are often used to specify the table name, @Id to denote the primary key, and @Column to configure columns.
