Comparison with other Nim logging libraries #2

Hello,

I ended up on your repo while scrolling through #nimlang tweets on Twitter.

Have you looked through:

https://nim-lang.github.io/Nim/logging.html (Nim stdlib for logging)
https://github.com/status-im/nim-chronicles
https://github.com/FedericoCeratto/nim-morelogging

How does this library compare with those? It would be nice to see a little writeup about that in the README.

Glad to see more and more Nim coders day by day! Thanks for sharing your code.

Thanks for leaving this comment. I just went through the links you provided. As for the standard lib logger, I modeled this after that to an extent in terms of simplicity however took influence from logrus. As for nim-chronicals, I likely wouldn't have written this library if I had found that in my searched. It's impressive. And for nim-morelogging, it's a really nice library. I hadn't found that one either in any of my searching.

I'll see if I can write up something more comprehensive if I find my library to be more compelling to use over these alternatives.
