description	Create and register small, pure helper functions when they improve clarity; keep them organized and tested

Custom Helpers

Create a helper file

// app/Support/helpers.php
function money(int $cents): string { return number_format($cents / 100, 2); }

Autoload

Add to composer.json:

{
  "autoload": { "files": ["app/Support/helpers.php"] }
}

Run composer dump-autoload.

Guidelines

• Keep helpers small and pure; avoid hidden IO/state
• Prefer static methods on value objects when domain-specific
