How do I configure Serilog for my .NET application?

To configure Serilog, you need to install the Serilog NuGet package and set it up in your Program.cs file.

What are the basic settings I should include?

You should include settings for the minimum log level, output template, and the sinks you want to use, like console or file.

Can you show me an example of the configuration code?

Sure! Here's a basic example:

Log.Logger = new LoggerConfiguration()
    .MinimumLevel.Debug()
    .WriteTo.Console()
    .WriteTo.File("logs/myapp.txt", rollingInterval: RollingInterval.Day)
    .CreateLogger();

How can I log exceptions using Serilog?

You can log exceptions by using Log.Error(exception, "Error message") in your catch blocks.
