Gemini Pro switching from showing full "reasoning" output to mind-grating cutesy LLM titles and summaries was the last straw.

I built a DX-focused logging library on top of debug-js. Notable features of https://github.com/Leftium/gg:

- Automatic namespaces based on calling function + path to source filename/path.

- Can be inserted into the middle of expressions.

- Can output a link that opens the file in your editor/IDE of choice.

- Simple to disable

- Diagnostics/hints to help with installation/configuration

I was surprised by the amount of logs already being output (by Vite) when I simply added https://github.com/debug-js/debug to my project.

Fortunately, debug-js output is very simple to filter via ENV and/or localStorage.debug

What I look for in a logging library (with more focus on dev/debugging than production):

- Easy to add new logs.

- Easy to identify the location of the code that triggered the log. I noticed a lot of my logging was simply to indicate the start and maybe end of a function call. If needed, I might add additional logs between these.

- Easy to surgically disable/filter groups of logs. Should be easier than commenting/uncommenting calls to logger. Otherwise I end up with lots of uninteresting log chatter (or I delete log statements, only to add them again later...)
