## What it is
A GitHub template repository for bootstrapping Android/Kotlin projects with a preconfigured Gradle Kotlin DSL build, sample app and library modules, and Jetpack Compose setup. It ships with GitHub Actions CI, detekt/ktlint static analysis, sample tests, and Maven Central publishing ready out of the box.

## Use cases
- start a new android kotlin project quickly
- android project template with ci already configured
- scaffold an android app with jetpack compose
- set up detekt and ktlint for an android project
- publish an android library to maven central with github actions
- gradle kotlin dsl starter project
- android template with github actions pre-merge checks

## When to choose
- you are starting a fresh Android or Kotlin library project and want CI, static analysis, and publishing wired up in seconds
- you want a 100% Kotlin Gradle DSL setup with buildSrc and version catalogs
- you want sample modules for an app, Android library, Kotlin library, and Compose activity

## When to avoid
- you have an existing Android project that already has its own build and CI setup
- you need a template for a non-Android pure JVM, multiplatform, or server-side Kotlin project
- you want an opinionated full app architecture rather than a minimal scaffold

## Facets
