ktlint-gradle is a Gradle plugin that integrates ktlint with Kotlin projects, creating tasks for checking code style and automatically formatting source files.
It’s designed for Gradle builds that use Kotlin, including Android and multiplatform projects, and gives teams a straightforward way to enforce consistent Kotlin formatting as part of local development or continuous integration workflows.
This is free and open source software.
