Auto insert a closing brace putting the cursor between the braces in Vim

Question

I have found some threads on this but they are three years old. Does anyone have a plugin to recommend for Vim, so that when I type {, it will do:

{
::cursor here::
}

Another helpful thing would be to have

if(::cursor here::)

after typing if.

I use delimiteMate.vim. It handles this in a configurable and non annoying way.
