Instead of manually removing and re-requiring the package, you can use the composer dump-autoload command to regenerate the Composer autoloader files and refresh the aliases without needing to re-run composer require.

How to add an alias for blade?
- In
composer.json, we can defineextra.laravel.aliaseswhich then becomes available in blade. - However, each time I do that, I must remove and require my package again.
- Is there a way to make the alias available in blade without have to perform step 2?
- Or is there a command that I can run to "refresh" all available aliases for blade?

I'm guessing you mean extending blade. You put the directives in the service provider.

Or are you talking about making facades available in blade files?

I'm talking about being able to write {{ Abcde::method(...) }}, Abcde is known as an alias in blade, correct?

Abcdeis known as an alias in blade, correct?
@laracoft No. That’s just a facade alias. It’s not something Blade-specific.

If we are talking about facades you can add this to the bottom of your config/app.php file to create aliases
'aliases' => Facade::defaultAliases()->merge([
'Abcde' => \Some\Real\Thing::class,
])->toArray(),

I have never used @use(...) before yet all the Abcde::method1() Fghijk::method2() worked.
The command that solves the problem is php artisan package:discover, it reads from composer.json's extra.laravel.aliases and registers them.
Thanks all!
