About:
SwiftyBeaver is a powerful, lightweight logging solution for Swift developers. It provides colored console output, log levels, and file logging to simplify debugging and monitoring. Its primary value is delivering a developer-friendly logging experience that integrates seamlessly into Swift projects.

Key Features:

Colored console output for easy log parsing
Multiple log levels (verbose, debug, info, warning, error)
File logging with log rotation
Platform support for iOS, macOS, Linux, and tvOS

Use Cases:

Debugging Swift applications in development environments
Production logging with file-based persistence

Alternatives:

Apple Logger – Apple's native unified logging system, which is more system-integrated but less colorful and flexible for developer workflows.
XCGLogger – A similar third-party logging library with comparable features, though SwiftyBeaver is often noted for its simplicity and performance.
