Winston is cool, but have you had a look at consolajs? I built myself a logger some time ago to streamline the development of my apps, I previously used winston (repo) now I use consola because I find it much better (repo)

Thanks for the suggestion 👍 I will take a look.

We also need it to log to a service, so we can have the maintainers view the logs - I will need to do more research

Related - Can we use a toast message or something similar to show errors? As of now, I see we are using console.log(error) to show errors.

According to the official docs by Next Js, we can use Pino as the logger for the application's server. This is the example repo - next-pino-logflare-logging-example

Or we can have a discussion on the pros and cons of different logging plugins. Can I also work on this issue?
