As developers, we want to implement a logging system in our application to improve debugging and maintainability of the code.
Currently, our application lacks a structured logging system, making it difficult to track issues and debug effectively. By implementing a logger, we can capture relevant information and errors systematically, improving our ability to maintain the codebase.
Tasks
Research and select a logging library (e.g., Winston, Morgan).
Integrate the logging library into the application.
Set up different log levels (e.g., info, warning, error).
Update existing console logs to use the new logger.
Document the logging setup and usage in the project’s README.
Acceptance Criteria (Checks)
[ ] A logging library is integrated into the application.
[ ] Different log levels are configured and functioning.
[ ] Existing console logs are replaced with the logger.
[ ] The application is tested to ensure logging works as intended.
[ ] Documentation is updated with logging instructions.
