Let’s talk about two similar features – the Smart Parentheses (also known as Smart Parens) and Smart Brackets. These two features allow you to easily type parens and brackets without having to close them with the corresponding closing paren or bracket, because they will be inserted automatically.
In this article the ‘paren’ means the opening or closing parenthesis ‘(‘ or ‘)’, and the bracket means the ‘[‘ (opening) and ‘]’ (closing) characters.
