How can I implement Serilog for logging in my ASP.NET application?

To implement Serilog in your ASP.NET application, first, install the Serilog NuGet package. You can do this via the Package Manager Console with the command: Install-Package Serilog.AspNetCore.

What configuration do I need to set up for Serilog?

You need to configure Serilog in the Program.cs file. Use Log.Logger = new LoggerConfiguration() to set up your logging configuration, specifying the output format and sinks.

Can I log to a file and the console at the same time?

Yes, you can log to multiple sinks. For example, you can add .WriteTo.Console() and .WriteTo.File("logs/myapp.txt") in your logger configuration.

How do I filter logs based on their level?

You can filter logs by setting the minimum level in your configuration, like this: .MinimumLevel.Information() to log only information and above.
