...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. Because it hooks into the end of many Gradle tasks, it can catch issues as part of a normal build workflow, making feedback immediate.
