 Installation
 ------------
-The easiest way to get a working copy of this project is to do a recursive
-clone:
 
-    git clone --recursive git://github.com/zendframework/ZendSkeletonApplication.git
-
-After the clone is complete, set up a virtual host to point to the public/
-directory of the project and you should be ready to go!
-
-If you're wondering what the `--recursive` flag is, keep reading:

-Git Submodules
---------------
-This project makes use of [Git submodules](http://book.git-scm.com/5_submodules.html).
-Utilizing Git submodules allows us to reference an exact commit in the upstream
-[zendframework/zf2](https://github.com/zendframework/zf2) repository and ensure
-that those who have cloned the project have that same commit checked out. This
-provides several benefits:
-
-* Developers do not have to worry about which commit of the zf2 project to have
-  checked out for this project to work.
-* No additional steps to "install" Zend Framework are needed; it "just works"
-  after a cloning the project.
-
-There are a couple of mild caveats to be aware of:
-
-* Be sure to always run `git submodule update` after pulling, as merge/rebase
-  does not automatically update the checked out commit in submodules if it has
-  been changed.
-* The initial clone will be a bit slower, due to it having to pull down a
-  separate copy of ZF2 from what you already have.
+Using Composer (recommended)
+----------------------------
+The recommended way to get a working copy of this project is to clone the repository
+and use composer to install dependencies:
+
+    cd my/project/dir
+    git clone git://github.com/zendframework/ZendSkeletonApplication.git
+    cd ZendSkeletonApplication
+    php composer.phar install
+
+Using Git submodules
+--------------------
+Alternatively, you can install using native git submodules. This method works fine but it is
+recommended that you use Composer due to the dependency management it provides.
+
+    git clone git://github.com/zendframework/ZendSkeletonApplication.git --recursive
+
+You will also need to update public/index.php and modules/Application/Module.php to enable autoloading.
+For public/index.php, replace lines 2-13 with:
+
+    use Zend\Loader\AutoloaderFactory,
+        Zend\ServiceManager\ServiceManager,
+        Zend\Mvc\Service\ServiceManagerConfiguration;
+
+    chdir(dirname(__DIR__));
+    require_once (getenv('ZF2_PATH') ?: 'vendor/ZendFramework/library') . '/Zend/Loader/AutoloaderFactory.php';
+
+    // Setup autoloader
+    AutoloaderFactory::factory();
+
+Within modules/Application/Module.php add this method to the Application class:
+
+    public function getAutoloaderConfig()
+    {
+        return array(
+            'Zend\Loader\ClassMapAutoloader' => array(
+                __DIR__ . '/autoload_classmap.php',
+            ),
+            'Zend\Loader\StandardAutoloader' => array(
+                'namespaces' => array(
+                    __NAMESPACE__ => __DIR__ . '/src/' . __NAMESPACE__,
+                ),
+            ),
+        );
+    }
+
+Virtual Host
+------------
+Afterwards, set up a virtual host to point to the public/ directory of the
+project and you should be ready to go!
