- 23. Facades Why you shouldnt use them They hide the dependencies of the service or class using them - This is the important one! Can be overridden, but then you override them everywhere http://programmingarehard.com/2014/01/11/stop-using-facades.html
- 24. Facades What to do instead You can instead inject them by their underlying service class names. See: http://laravel.com/docs/5.0/facades#facade-class-reference
