Add .vscode to .gitignore

[szokeasaurusrex]

Problem Statement

The .vscode directory, which is used to store local VSCode configuration options, is being tracked by Git. Since my local settings differ from what is stored in the repo, I always need to make sure not to stage my .vscode directory when commuting changes in Git. Since different developers may have different VSCode configurations, I don’t see any reason why we should be tracking this directory in our repo.

Solution Brainstorm

Add the .vscode directory to .gitignore. If we implement this change, we should probably also delete the .vscode directory from the GitHub repo.
