summary

Shows how to use the Python standard logging module to get structured, configurable logs with minimal boilerplate — examples include stream/file/rotating/file/socket handlers, formatters, and config-file reloads. Demonstrates turning log records into structured JSON logs, adding context via filters, and inspecting logger hierarchies with a logging tree visualizer. Covers data‑protection concerns, performance costs (milliseconds detail and formatter overhead), baseConfig pitfalls, and working code plus notebooks that actually run.
