@posobin smartparens is available for all modes, but smartparens is not set to strict mode by default, which provides structural editing. Set this in the . spacemacs file https://practicalli.github.io/spacemacs/install-spacemacs/smartparens.html
The Clojure layer includes evil-clever-parens package, which can be toggled with , T s
or set in the .spacemacs file.
