Notes

• All class files in the src directory will be autoloaded by composer.
• Composer will not autoload PHP files that are not classes unless you add each file to the files array in your composer.json. You will have to run composer update as well.
• If your not utilizing CI in your deployments remove composer's vendor directory from .gitignore and commit the entire vendor directory into version control.
