Idiomatic way of logging in Kotlin

Hello everyone! I'm new to Kotlin and transitioning from Java. In Java, I used to use SLF4J with Logback and declare a logger like this: ```java private static final Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(MyClass.class); ``` In Kotlin, I see that many people use something like `companion object` for the logger. But I'm not sure if that's idiomatic. Plus, I came across the `kotlin-logging` library, which seems to simplify things. My current code looks like this: ```kotlin class MyService { companion object { private val logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(MyService::class.java) } fun doSomething() { logger.info("Doing something") } } ``` This works, but it feels cumbersome. Do I need to write `companion object` every time? Is there a shorter and cleaner way?
