-## 🔌 Plugins (Fastify-style)
+## 📝 Logging & Error Handling
+
+Vibe ships with a structured JSON logger (Pino-compatible) and a powerful error interception system. Errors thrown, returned, or sent from any route are automatically caught and routed through a central error handler.
+
+### JSON Structured Logging
+
+Initialize the app with `logger: { lifecycle: true }` or add `prettyPrint: true` for development to get beautiful, human-readable terminal output.
+
+```javascript
+const app = vibe({
+  logger: {
+    lifecycle: true,
+    prettyPrint: process.env.NODE_ENV !== "production",
+  },
+});
+
+// JSON native bindings
+app.log.info({ database: "online" }, "System booting...");
+```
+
+### Contextual Sub-Loggers
+
+Every incoming request dynamically extracts a fast UUID exposed securely on `req.id` natively piping through to `req.log`.
+
+```javascript
+app.get("/users/:id", (req) => {
+  req.log.warn("Database lookup constraint fired");
+  // Production Output -> {"level":40,"time":123,"reqId":"abcd-123", "msg":"..."}
+
+  return { success: true };
+});
+```
+
+### Central Error Abstraction
+
+To route an error into the central handler without halting execution via `throw`, simply return an `Error` object from your handler — Vibe intercepts it automatically:
+
+```javascript
+app.get("/test", (req, res) => {
+  return new Error("Something went wrong");
+});
+```
