Linty Fresh
summary
Shows how to author a real Android Lint check end to end: define an Issue, write a Detector/Java scanner that visits enum declarations, register it, package it as a jar and install it into ~/.android/lint so Android Studio and CI pick it up. Uses the Android Lint API, Gradle, JUnit 4 and the lint test helpers to run positive/negative cases. Demonstrates an enum detector, notes the core lint repo has ~200 core issues, and produces a jar installed to ~/.android/lint that reports warnings.
