Automate The Small Things
summary
Automates the CI pipeline to actually enforce formatting, run tests, build an apk and distribute it to testers or the Play Store using CircleCI, Bitrise or Codemagic. Uses ktlint plus git pre-push hooks to fail fast, Danger to post inline lint comments and to report apk size changes, and Gradle Play Publisher / Crashlytics Beta to upload artifacts. Example run finds 15 dependency updates; builds produce diagnosable artifacts and inline failures so merges only happen when the configured checks pass.
