.vscode directory shouldnt be part of code

[ShashankaNataraj]

Ideally, the .vscode dir should be excluded from github through the .gitignore file

@ShashankaNataraj , I would disagree. The workspace .vscode settings file is actually a suggested way, by the VSCode team, to share common workspace settings (see: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/getstarted/settings)

Workspace settings are useful for sharing project specific settings across a team.

Because of the way our project is setup, the primary directory where all of our package code, packages/node_modules, is ignored by search and file watcher. The settings we provide are a way to get around that.

One thing you can do, if there are settings that you don't like is to create another .json settings file in the .vscode directory. That should get picked up by VSCode and used.
