RE: Implementing my own NRF_LOG backend.

Yes I have gone through the nrf_log documentation. I know that nordic provides option to log to flash but for my use-case I want to store logs into a file with daily or hourly rotation functionality. As far I have understood from the flash backend implementation, it writes to a memory location instead of using a file system (eg. fatfs).

I don't have much experience with embedded but I know a bit. Always happy to learn something.

Do you have experience in any other type(s) of development - particularly, other embedded microcontroller(s) ?

Have you studied the Logger module documentation:

Backend API:

Note that there is already an option to log to Flash:
