How have you used static code analysis tools and what is your experience with them?

Static code analysis tools help identify errors, potential bugs, and style violations without running the application. In Android development, I have used tools such as Lint and Detekt (for Kotlin).

For example, Android Lint is integrated into Android Studio and helps find issues related to performance, security, accessibility, and code style. Detekt helps maintain the cleanliness of Kotlin code by detecting duplication, function complexity, and other anti-patterns.

My experience includes configuring rules, integrating analysis into CI/CD pipelines, and fixing identified issues to improve code quality and prevent errors at early stages.
