| 1 | +Android Lint |
| 2 | +============ |
| 3 | + |
| 4 | +Android Lint is a static analysis tool (which despite the name is not |
| 5 | +limited to Android, and within Google for example is used to analyze |
| 6 | +Java and Kotlin server side code as well as Android and even desktop |
| 7 | +software like IDEs.) |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +Lint's focus is on finding bugs (whether they are related to |
| 10 | +correctness, performance, security, internationalization, usability and |
| 11 | +so on); it's not a source code style checker. |
