Linta

A set of useful lint checks developed with Android Lint API to keep the app follow a solid design system

Motivation

Large-scale mobile apps often involve large teams of developers. Without proper lint checks in a large project’s codebase, one might fall into the pitfall of inconsistent UI designs with different colors being used in layouts and other resources, making the app theme hard to maintain.

For more details, check Lint Checks for a Solid Design System session presented at Droidcon Egypt 2022.

To use Linta in your project, add the following line to build.gradle file.

Maven Central

lintChecks "com.swvl.lint:linta-android:x.y.z"
