Answer 1

The reason autoload_paths didn't work for you and you were forced to do:

Dir["lib/**/*.rb"].each do |path|
  require_dependency path
end

is because you forgot to namespace your class.

lib/awesome/stuffs.rb should contain a class/module like this:

class/module Awesome::Stuffs
....

but you had:

class/module Stuffs
....

Rails can only autoload classes and modules whose name matches it's file path and file name.
