Remko Popma commented on LOG4J2-1811: ------------------------------------- I agree our documentation is very good and certainly thorough. On the other hand, I have seen comments on StackOverflow indicating that for some users the sheer volume of documentation is a bit intimidating and makes it potentially harder to find what they are looking for. What I have in mind for this ticket is to make small "nudges", changes that make Log4j 2 more intuitive to use and configure. Hopefully that makes documentation less necessary. > Log4j 2 configuration/usage ergonomics > -------------------------------------- > > Key: LOG4J2-1811 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1811 > Project: Log4j 2 > Issue Type: Epic > Components: Configurators, Core > Reporter: Remko Popma > > The vast majority of StackOverflow Log4j 2 questions is related to > configuration.
