User configuration to support the Practicalli Spacemacs book.

• recommended layers for use for enhanced Clojure development experience
• numerous tweaks for general Spacemacs usage
• snippets (code and configuration templates) for clojure and markdown languages

Requirements

Configuration Design

dotspacemacs/user-config section includes additional configuration and is defined across several files to make it easier to manage updates to the configuration over time and avoid merging changes with your own customisation.

Loaded configuration files:

• clojure-config.el - clojure-mode options, evil-cleverparents enable, portal tap> on nrepl & keybindings, custom elisp functions
• theme-config.el - theme and mode-line configuration
• org-config.el - notes and task faces and workflow
• version-control-config.el - git, Magit and Forge configuration (predominantly forge config)
• user-config.el - general config tweaks

eshell-config.el defines a custom prompt for eshell, although this configuration file is not loaded. Practicalli now uses vterm to use the operating system shell in a terminal popup window.

The load-file function includes the code from each file during startup. Comment the load-file expression if that configuration is not required, or add your own configuration files to easily extend the Practicalli configuration without having to merge changes.

.spacemacs.d/init.el is main Spacemacs configuration file (although a $HOME/.spacemacs) file will supersede this configuration and should therefore be removed.
