Technical requirements

In this chapter, we look into monitoring and logging tools. One of the tools I often use is Seq. I am not affiliated with them; it is just a tool I like to use. You can download a free-to-use personal version at https://datalust.co/download. You can download the installer or run the tool as a Docker image. To use this, you have to install Docker on your environment. I suggest you go to https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop/ to learn more about Docker. If you want to play around, I suggest you choose the Docker version. You can run the image locally by invoking the following command from a terminal:

docker run -d
    --restart unless-stopped
    --name seq
    -e ACCEPT_EULA=Y
    -v c:\data:/data
    -p 80:80
    -p 5341:5341
    datalust/seq:latest

This Docker command downloads the image from datalust/seq...
