🚨 Critical Notice: Console Page Availability
The Console Page is available only starting from version 4.1.0 of CSharpEssentials.LoggerHelper.Dashboard.
If you are using any version below 4.1.0, the Console section will not appear due to a publishing error in earlier builds.

🎉 What's New
With version 4.0.7, we’ve taken the Dashboard to a whole new level.
A brand-new Console Page has been added, allowing you to see in real time what’s happening inside your application — directly within the dashboard!
This feature mirrors the Console Sink output inside the web interface, making it incredibly easy to monitor your app’s internal behavior without external tools.
And because production environments often restrict console access, this update ensures you never miss critical logs, even when your app runs remotely.
To protect sensitive data, the Dashboard now supports optional Basic Authentication.
You can safely expose the dashboard behind authorized access, giving visibility only to trusted users — a must-have for production-grade observability.
🧠 In short: version 4.0.7 introduces the Console Page and secured Basic Authentication, turning your LoggerHelper Dashboard into a complete real-time monitoring hub.
With version 4.0.6, we've introduced the highly requested ability to customize the main Dashboard page.
With version 4.0.5, we've significantly simplified the integration and usage of the AI-powered logging features.
