Log-symbols is a powerful node package that provides colored symbols for various log levels. It's an ideal addition to your developer toolkit if you're looking to streamline your console logging with aesthetic and meaningful symbols. The symbols deliver an intuitive way to indicate info, success, warning, or error logs. A special aspect of log-symbols is the inclusion of fallbacks for Windows CMD to cater to its limited character set.

How do you use log-symbols?

Using log-symbols is quite straightforward. After successfully installing the package using npm install log-symbols, you can import it into your desired JavaScript file. Here's how you can use log-symbols for outputting a success message:

import logSymbols from 'log-symbols';

console.log(logSymbols.success, 'Finished successfully!');

On terminals with Unicode support, this will yield a tick symbol with the message "Finished successfully!". For terminals not supporting Unicode, an equivalent visual will be displayed.
