09/14/2020, 3:27 PMDetekt reports things like methods that are too complex, code that has too many cumulative issues (e.g. maybe 1 super long file is OK, but 20 super long files is not). It’s also not android-specific.

09/14/2020, 3:57 PMAndroid lint isn't necessarily Android-specific: https://medium.com/@vanniktech/running-lint-on-java-kotlin-modules-55b747d0e5f3
but most of the rules are about correct use of Android APIs (in build.gradle, *.java, *.kotlin, and *.xml), whereas Detekt rules are mostly about standard Kotlin style and general usage
