Am I dumb or where is the ktlint.jar for windows?

AFAIK, Ktlint doesn't have native bindings

but how to use it on Windows, I cannot just write ktlint on the command line

if you're downloading from the assets on the tagged releases, the

ktlint

script is just a simple shell wrapper prepended to a JAR. you can run it with

java -jar

or replace the prefix with your own batch script launcher.

now I got it, the confusion comes that the file ktlint does not have any extension, oooohh boy 😄 I would recommend to add the .jar extension then it would be super clear

it does not have an extension because it is shell script first

I don't know if Windows Users would know this, I never in my life run a file without .jar extension with the java -jar command, jm2c, thanks anyways for the fast help!

I had some troubles finding it, but it is documented https://pinterest.github.io/ktlint/install/cli/#microsoft-windows-users
