Pull request overview
This PR integrates the logger package to provide structured, debug-only logging for the Flutter application. The implementation ensures that all log output is automatically suppressed in production builds using kDebugMode guards.
Key Changes:
- Added
logger: ^2.5.0dependency to pubspec.yaml - Created
AppLoggerutility class withkDebugMode-guarded wrapper methods around the logger package - Replaced
print()calls inmain.dartwith appropriateAppLoggermethods (debug, info, warning, error)

| File | Description |
|---|---|
| pubspec.yaml | Added logger package dependency (v2.5.0) |
| lib/utils/app_logger.dart | New utility class providing static logging methods with kDebugMode guards and PrettyPrinter configuration |
| lib/main.dart | Replaced 13 print() statements with appropriate AppLogger method calls (d/i/w/e) based on log level |
| test/app_logger_test.dart | Added tests documenting kDebugMode behavior, though tests don't directly test AppLogger class itself |

The test file doesn't actually import or test the AppLogger class that was implemented. These tests only verify kDebugMode behavior without testing the actual AppLogger methods.
Consider importing package:stat_iq/utils/app_logger.dart and testing that the AppLogger methods can be called without throwing exceptions:
import 'package:stat_iq/utils/app_logger.dart';
test('AppLogger methods should not throw in debug mode', () {
expect(() => AppLogger.d('Test debug message'), returnsNormally);
expect(() => AppLogger.i('Test info message'), returnsNormally);
expect(() => AppLogger.w('Test warning'), returnsNormally);
expect(() => AppLogger.e('Test error', Exception('test')), returnsNormally);
});This would provide actual test coverage for the AppLogger implementation.
