Re. multiplatform support I see from the previous message support is in beta -- anyone have any specific examples?
• I'm looking to enable detekt across all source sets in a kvision style project: frontendMain, commonMain, backendMain
• I'd like to enable the formatter/ktlint plugin for all source sets
• I'd like to customize detekt ideally once for all source sets in the entire project
• Detekt should run with type support

I don’t have a concrete example to link, but if your project is OSS, it could be the best candidate to become a reference for the Detekt + KMP ecosystem

You should have all the Detekt tasks already created for you
&gt; • I’d like to enable the formatter/ktlint plugin for all source sets
This is supported and “should work” out of the box
&gt; • I’d like to customize detekt ideally once for all source sets in the entire project
Same as above, you should be able to specify the `detekt{}` configuration at the same level where you apply the `kotlin("multiplatform")` Gradle plugin
&gt; • Detekt should run with type support
That’s the tricky point. TR works so far onyl with Android &amp; JVM targets only

I am missing the `detektCommonMain` task. I do have `detektMetadataCommonMain`. I do also have the expected `detektBackendMain` and `detektFrontendMain` tasks.

&gt; &gt; I’d like to enable the formatter/ktlint plugin for all source sets
&gt; This is supported and “should work” out of the box
I had to explicitly specify `source` i.e.:
```source = files("src/backendMain/kotlin", "src/backendTest/kotlin", "src/commonMain/kotlin", "src/frontendMain/kotlin")```
Is that to be expected or am I doing something wrong?

I was also unable to add the formatter plugin -- trying to add `detektPlugins "io.gitlab.arturbosch.detekt:detekt-formatting:1.19.0"` at the `all` in the multiplatform dependencies declaration did not work. I didn't try to add it to each source set independently -- not sure if that would work.

What do you mean with "did not work"? You got an error message?

```  Line 65:         detektPlugins("io.gitlab.arturbosch.detekt:detekt-formatting:1.19.0")
                   ^ Unresolved reference. None of the following candidates is applicable because of receiver type mismatch:```
Not open source, sorry

Looks like it works if declared in a top-level `dependencies` block, not inside the `sourceSets`.

Still missing detektCommonMain for some reason though

Though it is "detecting" issues in commonMain nonetheless
