The plugin includes the [Di](Utility/Di.php) utility class, which is used to register and resolve dependencies. To inject dependencies you only need a class which is accessible to the framework. This can be from *CakePHP* itself, from a plugin, or even a vendor library. To get working quickly check out the [Quick Start](Docs/Tutorials/Quick-Start.md) tutorial from the [documentation](Docs/Home.md).
