A beautiful console logging library with customizable layouts and colors.

Layouts

BetterLogs comes with two built-in layouts:

Classic (default)

Shows timestamp with the log level:

[14:30:05] [SUCCESS] User logged in successfully

Detailed

Shows the calling filename for easier debugging:

[app.ts] [SUCCESS] User logged in successfully

// Use classic layout (default)
logger.use("classic");
logger.success("With timestamp");

// Switch to detailed layout
logger.use("detailed");
