How to Kontribute
summary
Step-by-step checklist for contributing to the Kotlin plugin: reproduce the dev environment with JDK 1.6/1.7/1.8, Ant >=1.9.4, Gradle and IntelliJ IDEA 2017.3+ with “delegate IDE actions to Gradle” enabled; open module from build.gradle.kts. Use the PSI viewer to find AST nodes, implement an inspection class (example: remove redundant spread operator), register it in plugin.xml, add HTML description and generator-based test data (.kt/.after files), run the generated tests, then push a PR and post the GitHub PR URL to the YouTrack issue.
