That gives you local level storage of the object with two functions to register and return

Then you can require the framework wherever you define and call classes

yeah it works that way atm, I was just aiming to some sort of solution where I wouldnt have to do anything inside the A and B file to register the classes, instead the file that handles loading of classes would somehow know how to do that
