Simple Log File Viewer

I was having a lot of problems displaying log files in the admin area of my application.  The Logfiles were being written to following each transaction, and a typical daily log file could be up to 10MB. The best available packages would crash and burn with this size of logfile.
I tried both rap2hpoutre/laravel-log-viewer and arcanedev/log-viewer and ended up building a simple viewer with pagination of the logs. Alpine is used to collapse stack trace.
In TALL stack style, the logfiles are displayed using Tailwind.

Of note here is the detection of the [stackdump] sections, moving these to a nested block and hiding that block using Alpine. Clicking the [stackdump] in the log expands the nested section and reveals the stack dump.
