are you afraid of constructors? why not just always initialize it once?

there's a constructor right there! i generally dislike constructors tho bc they have weird constraints like can't be async and can't be overloaded

Why do you need an instance if you're defining a static Logger. Why do you even need to initialize?

believe it or not, this code is simplified and an actual logger class would probably have methods for logging
Replying to @techsavvytravvy
I’d probably use a private instance + use a getter. private static _instance static get instance{}
