## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

detekt is a static-analysis and linting tool for Kotlin. Its official README describes code smell analysis, configurable rule sets, baselines for legacy projects, multiple report formats, Gradle integration, and extension points for custom rules and reports.

### Projektgeschichte

The detekt GitHub repository was created in October 2016. Early release tags used milestone and release-candidate names, while the modern project documents stable 1.x releases and 2.0.0 alpha documentation on detekt.dev.

### Adoptionsgeschichte

detekt grew with Kotlin's move from Android-focused adoption into broader JVM and multiplatform use. Its README highlights Maven Central, the Gradle plugin, third-party plugins, IDE and CI integrations, SARIF output for code scanning, and a marketplace for custom rules.

### Wie es verwendet wird

Package users typically install the CLI jar, Homebrew formula, or Gradle plugin, then point detekt at Kotlin sources with a YAML config and optional baseline XML. In Gradle builds, teams commonly configure reports such as HTML, Checkstyle XML, SARIF, and Markdown.

### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

detekt matters in package-manager culture because it is one of the canonical Kotlin quality gates: language-specific, rule-driven, CI-friendly, and packaged across CLI, Maven Central, Gradle, Homebrew, Scoop, and Nix-style workflows.
