Update - enhancing clojure layer experience
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history 
Sayid debugger package and clj-refactor are no longer loaded by default.

Sayid has caused a few issues with Cider recently so it is left to the user to decide
if it is useful for them.

clj-refactor has not been updated in several years and some of its functionality
is moving into clojure-mode.

Both these packages can be included by defining their package names as
:variables on the clojure layer

# Enhancing the Clojure experience

Adding the **clojure** layer provides a featured Clojure development experience based on [CIDER](https://docs.cider.mx)
Adding the **clojure** layer provides a Clojure development experience based on [CIDER](https://docs.cider.mx)

We can make the development experience even better by adding a few more layers:
We can make the development experience even better by adding a few more layers and some optional packages for the clojure layer:

Layers are defined in the `dotspacemacs-configuration-layers` section of the `~/.spacemacs` configuration file.

| Layer name | Description |
|-------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `auto-completion` | to complete names of functions, symbols, etc. |
| `git` | git based version control with [Magit](https://magit.vc/) |
| `markdown` | writing project descriptions in README.md and other markdown files |
| `org-mode` | write project documentaion, organise tasks |
| `syntax-checking` | spell checking words as you type |
| `version control` | general version control features, eg. diff margins |
