Description
Reports package declarations that contain uppercase letters. Kotlin’s coding convention requires package names to be all-lowercase.
Rationale
Lowercase-only package names avoid case-sensitivity issues on file systems and improve consistency across the codebase.
// Bad — uppercase letter in package name
package com.example.myPackage // FLAW
// Good
package com.example.mypackageRemediation
Rename the package to use all-lowercase letters. Apply the rename through your IDE so all import statements are updated automatically.
