Tech-stack

• Gradle
  • Gradle Kotlin DSL - For reference purposes, here's an article explaining the migration.
  • Plugins
    • Ktlint - creates convenient tasks in your Gradle project that run ktlint checks or do code auto format.
    • Detekt - a static code analysis tool for the Kotlin programming language.
    • Spotless - format java, groovy, markdown and license headers using gradle.
    • Dokka - a documentation engine for Kotlin, performing the same function as javadoc for Java.
    • jacoco - a Code Coverage Library.
    • Gradle Versions - provides a task to determine which dependencies have updates. Additionally, the plugin checks for updates to Gradle itself.
