Kotlin-logging is a lightweight logging framework specifically designed for Kotlin, offering a more straightforward and effective logging solution compared to traditional Java frameworks like SLF4J or LOG4J. Built entirely in Kotlin, it provides seamless integration with Kotlin projects and features like severity levels, regex search, and Mapped Diagnostic Context (MDC) for enriched log data. The framework allows for concise log statements and supports the inclusion of valuable metadata such as user information and session IDs, which is essential for complex mobile applications. Despite its advantages, including cleaner code without class names and enriched logs, Kotlin-logging faces challenges due to a smaller community and limited maintenance support. Best practices for logging in Kotlin involve organizing logs to avoid information overload, using configurable severity levels to prioritize log importance, and maintaining consistent formatting for easier data analysis.
