My IntelliJ has been generating private getters for a few weeks now, which is weird because it does not respect the default template:
public ##
#if($field.modifierStatic)
static ##
#end
$field.type ##
#set($name = $StringUtil.capitalizeWithJavaBeanConvention($StringUtil.sanitizeJavaIdentifier($helper.getPropertyName($field, $project))))
#if ($field.boolean && $field.primitive)
#if ($StringUtil.startsWithIgnoreCase($name, 'is'))
#set($name = $StringUtil.decapitalize($name))
#else
is##
#end
#else
get##
#end
${name}() {
return $field.name;
}
I've been searching for a while what could cause this but no result. Is this a bug or a feature?

In general, they should be public. If they are private they can only be called from within your class and, since you already have access to the private variables within your class, are redundant. The point of them is to allow access to these variables to other, outside, objects. Save this answer.
You can use ⌘N (macOS), or Alt+Insert (Windows/Linux) for the Generate menu and then select Constructor , Getter , Setter or Getter and Setter .
My guess is your Default Visibility setting in File | Settings | Editor | Code Style | Java is set to Private.
