Morgan provides automated HTTP request logging for Express applications, capturing essential information about incoming requests and responses for monitoring and debugging. As the creator of CoreUI, a widely used open-source UI library, I’ve implemented Morgan logging in Node.js production services throughout my 11 years of backend development. The most practical approach is installing morgan and configuring it as Express middleware with predefined or custom formats. This method enables comprehensive request tracking with minimal configuration and supports writing logs to files for production environments.
