web build and node dev container install

[wajihyassine]

The following PR:

• Builds Web UI and adds build in web/dist
• update .ignore to allow /dist within web folder to be tracked
• Updates vscode docker dev container to install node

Thanks Aaron, I don't think we can do what they did because we aren't pushing our app to npm (don't think we even can since UI needs rest of components to run). I'll check in with TS to double check why they decided to check in /dist

Yeah, I wasn't trying to suggest that we repackage through NPM, but we might want to do a build of them when we create the image since it's not clear to me what the benefit of checking these files in is.

Ah okay I see.. that makes sense. If we decide to build within image I know we'd need to install Node on the container which may be heavier/longer to install then the compiled dist/ folder and takes a bit to compile so may be a tradeoff unless we build and push /dist somewhere else and then pull from it.

Let me check back in on the TS part!
