// New index.php

use Boorj\Bolt\Configuration;

$configuration = new Configuration(dirname(__DIR__);
$configuration->getVerifier()->disableApacheChecks();
$configuration->verify();
$app = new Bolt\Application(array('resources'=>$configuration));
$app->initialize();

It can go anywhere in your autoloaded paths. So for example if I'm starting a new Bolt project I'll also define a root composer.json for that site and put a line like this in it.

    "autoload": {
        "psr-4": {
            "MySite\\": "src",
            "MySite\\Tests\\": "tests"
        }
    }

Then you can autoload any classes eg: MySite\Bolt\Configuration will be loaded from src/Bolt/Configuration.php

That way you can swap out any individual services within Bolt for your own, if you want to change any of the core functionality. The line below now uses your custom Confguration class rather than the Bolt default.

use MySite\Bolt\Configuration;
$configuration = new Configuration(dirname(__DIR__);
