+**How to add or update a dependency to the local repository**
+
+1. Get the jar file you want to add as a dependency and place it on your desktop
+2. You'll need to deploy your jar as a maven artifact for Maven to recognize the jar as a potential dependency. For that you can use the command in your command prompt:
+
+```
+mvn deploy:deploy-file -Durl=file:///C:\Users\cympe\Desktop -DgroupId=net.Indyuce.mmoitems.lib -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=<JarFileName>.jar -DartifactId=<ArtifactName> -Dversion=<ArtifactVersion>
+```
+where 1.0 is replaced by the artifact version
+
+This will generate a folder that you can place in the MI local repo.
+
+3. Head to the MMOItems pom.xml config file and add a dependency:
+
+```
+<dependency>
+	<groupId>net.Indyuce.mmoitems.lib</groupId>
+	<artifactId>ArtifactName</artifactId>
+	<version>ArtifactVersion</version>
+</dependency>
+The artifact names and versions must match in order for the dependency to be recognized.
