Write your own Kotlin lint checks! | Tor Norbye

Recording brought to you by American Express. americanexpress.io/kotlin-jobs
Android Lint is a static analysis tool which supports analyzing Kotlin code, Java code, and soon, KMP.
With 500 built-in checks, it ships with Android Studio and runs in the code editor and as part of the build system and is therefore used by millions of developers. But it's not only used to analyze Android apps and the Android platform; despite the name, it's not actually Android specific -- it's also used to analyze server Kotlin and Java code inside of Google!
In this talk, Tor Norbye will cover the basic features of Android Lint and then show how you can easily extend lint by writing your own checks.

Is it easier if we write Lint check via Detekt? From my experience, Detekt check is much faster than Android Lint check.
