faire-detekt-rules is an opinionated rule set for Detekt that plugs into Kotlin builds to enforce additional static analysis checks beyond the standard Detekt rules.
It focuses on code patterns that can reduce bugs, improve readability, and standardize conventions, with checks covering assertions, collection usage, nullable receivers, imports, enum handling, global variables, and related Kotlin practices.
This is free and open source software.
