The logger is a central components in my opinion. The first step would be to look for good logging frameworks. Maybe make it possible to easily swap the loggers. fern and defmt look very promissing.

Ideally, it should be possible to reroute logging output to file only. This makes it possible to use logging output even if a mission has already launched and the console is unavailable. Maybe something like a log dispatcher which takes a formatted string and sends it to whatever log mechanism the user implements (which can also include file logging)

Look into a log dispatcher implementation
Check loggers like fern or defmt and the viability of using them in the log dispatcher

Some additional research:

There seem to be three major logging frameworks

slog
fern
log4rs

It would be interesting to check which ones are best suited for larger systems with a full runtime.

It looks like the framework will just use the regular logging facade. defmt is too specific for embedded systems.
