dictConfig-Specific

• Dictionary schema details (version, formatters, handlers, loggers, root): https://docs.python.org/3/library/logging.config.html#logging-config-dictschema
• logging.config.dictConfig function: https://docs.python.org/3/library/logging.config.html#logging.config.dictConfig

• In modules, use logging.getLogger(__name__).
• Avoid calling basicConfig in libraries or scattered modules.
