v2.0.2 - Better Default Logger

Release v2.0.2

🎯 Better Out-of-Box Experience

Default Logger Now Uses Terminal Output

The global default logger now automatically uses colored terminal output instead of binary format. This provides a much better user experience, especially for new users and during development.

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Fixed early logging showing binary format - Logs that happen before logger configuration (like "Register middleware") now display properly
• Default logger initialization - Changed from binary stderr to terminal stdout for human-readable output

💡 What Changed

Before v2.0.2:

// Early logs would show as: GOLZ...binary data...
zlog.Info("Starting application")  // Binary format by default

After v2.0.2:

// Now shows as: INFO [01-25|20:45:00] Starting application
zlog.Info("Starting application")  // Beautiful colored output by default

🔧 Usage

No code changes required! The default logger now "just works" with terminal output.

You can still customize as before:

// Use binary format if needed
zlog.SetWriter(os.Stderr)  

// Or use your own configuration
logger := zlog.NewStructured()
logger.SetWriter(zlog.StderrTerminal())
zlog.SetDefault(logger)
