The Gradle Lint Plugin is a static analysis tool for Gradle build scripts (written in Groovy) that finds patterns of misuse, deprecated constructs, and opportunities for optimization in build configurations. It functions analogous to ESLint in the JavaScript ecosystem: you define rules, apply them across the build scripts, and get warnings or errors when code deviates from best practices. It is particularly useful for maintaining consistency across large, multi-module projects or monorepos, helping teams avoid build anti-patterns, unused dependencies, or misconfigurations. The plugin supports custom rules and can even automatically fix certain violations (e.g. unused dependencies) via a fixGradleLint task. ...
