+```c++
+#include "spdlog/sinks/stdout_color_sinks.h"
+#include "spdlog/spdlog.h"
+
+int main()
+{
+    // Replace the default logger with a (color, single-threaded) stderr
+    // logger with name "" (but first replace it with an arbitrarily-named
+    // logger to prevent a name clash)
+    spdlog::set_default_logger( spdlog::stderr_color_st( "some_arbitrary_name" ) );
+    spdlog::set_default_logger( spdlog::stderr_color_st( "" ) );
+
+    spdlog::info("This message will go to stderr");
