It is written in protest against the many "logging frameworks" that are available and recommended by many developers.
Simple Log is a small library that does logging very simply and requires you to do almost nothing (other than actually logging) to get log output happening.
It is much simpler to use than a logging framework, especially in terms of configuration.
It doesn't attempt to solve every logging problem in one package, but contains enough features to be a viable alternative for most applications that need logging.
Simple Log is a true "Tiny Tool".
With only 3 classes in a 17.8K JAR, this tool will handle the logging needs of most small- to medium-sized projects, but with an almost non-existent learning curve.
