What is ASP.NET Core logging?

ASP.NET Core logging is built on Microsoft.Extensions.Logging. Categories, log levels, and providers (console, debug, third-party) determine what gets recorded. ArgusLogs adds automatic deep capture alongside standard ILogger usage.

Log levels

Trace, Debug, Information, Warning, Error, and Critical map to filtering rules in appsettings.json. ArgusLogs structured entries can coexist with Serilog or built-in providers.
