In Android Studio there is an option to do static code analysis using Lint(Analyze --> Inspect code...). Wanted to know the difference between the code analysis using the Lint and SonarQube.

@akhil thanks for your reply. Do you mean that SonarLint and Lint available with Android Studio both are same? – AmitAtap Feb 19 '21 at 03:19

@akhilnair Not the same at all. There are many linters that do slightly different things and catch different issues. Android's built-in is there by default, `lint` and `lintAnalyze`, then there's `lintKotlin` from Kotlinter, and `sonar` to run Sonar's analysis. They are unique analyses that will catch different things. You may want to run all three. There will be some overlap. – Samuel Neff Apr 20 '23 at 14:47
