A few useful extensions that not necessarily have to belong to the template.

{        
    factory
        .AddSerilog(new LoggerConfiguration()
        .Enrich.WithMachineName()
        .WriteTo.File(
            logFile.FullName, 
            outputTemplate: "{Timestamp:yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.fff zzz} [{Level:u4}] [{MachineName}] [{SourceContext}] {Message}{NewLine}{Exception}")
