+## Limitiations of autowire
+
+`autowire` doesn't handle propagating generic type parameters, when creating missing dependencies using constructors or
+`apply` methods. E.g. if you have a `class B[X](a: A[X])`, and a `B[Int]` needs to be created, the specific value for 
+the type parameter `X` won't be propagated when resolving the dependencies.
+
+As a work-around, you need to explicitly provide the generic dependencies with concrete type parameters. A generic 
+dependency might appear multiple times, with different type parameters. To wire the classes from the example, you'd 
+need: `autowire[...](B[Int](_), someInstance: A[Int])` or similar.
