    An anti-bikeshedding Kotlin linter with built-in formatter

    • In my experience, I have faced these issues while trying to keep the code style consistent across the team - 1. ktlint and "Reformat Code" in Android Studio produce different outputs. This causes issues as most developers find it easier to use "Reformat Code" in AS but if you have a ktlint check on CI, the checks sometimes fail. 2. Different AS versions produce different `codeStyles.xml` file. Sometimes, on updating AS, it automatically adds new rules to the `codeStyles.xml` file. These rules might not be compatible with ktlint and might only work on specific AS versions.
