Slog is a simple logger written in C. It is mainly created for simplicity of use. slog doesn't use any platform dependent code. It only uses the C standard library (libc).

To include and build it in your cmake project, then simply add this repo and then from your project's main CMakeLists.txt file, simply add this repo as a subdirectory using add_subdirectory function in cmake. If you are not using cmake, then simply add the slog/slog.h && slog/slog.c file in your project and you are done! Just make sure the slog.c file compiles and that you can include slog.h in your project.
