 ## Loading Strategy
 
+### Parallel Plugins
+
 By default, Nuxt loads plugins sequentially. You can define a plugin as `parallel` so Nuxt won't wait the end of the plugin's execution before loading the next plugin.
 
-```ts [plugins/hello.ts]
+```ts [plugins/my-plugin.ts]
 export default defineNuxtPlugin({
   name: 'my-plugin',
   parallel: true,

 })
 ```
 
+### Plugins With Dependencies
+
+If a plugin needs to await a parallel plugin before it runs, you can add the plugin's name to the `dependsOn` array.
+
+```ts [plugins/depending-on-my-plugin.ts]
+export default defineNuxtPlugin({
+  name: 'depends-on-my-plugin',
+  dependsOn: ['my-plugin']
+  async setup (nuxtApp) {
+    // this plugin will wait for the end of `my-plugin`'s execution before it runs
+  }
+})
+```
+
 ## Using Composables
 
 You can use [composables](/docs/guide/directory-structure/composables) as well as [utils](/docs/guide/directory-structure/utils) within Nuxt plugins:
