 ## Debugging
 
 If you are ever curious what files are being included, you can simply run `composer dump-autoload -v` and view the php-inc output to see which files are being merged with which composer files definition.
 
+## Managing Dependencies
+
+With extended use, you may come into a situation where one file included needs to be loaded before another. If this comes up, the best solution I've found for now is to prefix those files with an `_` and just create a new file named inc.php which loads them in the correct order.
+
+For example:
+
+```
+src/a.php
+src/b.php
+```
+
+`a.php` depends on `b.php` loading first. To enforce loading order, we'd make the following change:
+
+```
+src/_a.php
+src/_b.php
+src/inc.php
+```
+
+Where `inc.php` is as follows:
+
+```php
+<?php
+
+require_once __DIR__ . '/_b.php';
+require_once __DIR__ . '/_a.php';
+```
+
+When you run `composer dump-autoload`, only `inc.php` will be included and will make sure to include those files correctly.

 This is useful for more than just functions however. There are plenty of cases where one file with multiple definitions would make sense to keep together instead of splitting into several files which clutter the filesystem.
