Clean Code Base: Harnessing the Power of Android Lint and Custom Rules
summary
Shows concrete uses of Android Lint and custom rules: detects mismatched string-format arguments that would crash at runtime, flags missing intent export changes when updating target/compile SDK, and finds notification trampoline and translucent activity orientation crash sources so enabling rules removes live crashes. Explains building a lint module from a template repo, using a mutable data class rule to block Retrofit mutables, and using baseline files and tests so rules run reliably and actually fix problems rather than just warn.
