Devcontainer

Added a devcontainer for People using VS Code. This just is an image running a realively recent npm and nodejs installation. We can also modify the setup of the basic tools. For my taste this is the easiest way to onboard new people, since we only require docker and docker compose, which most people have anyways, even if they dont do web development usually.

Thank you for suggesting this. I had not heard of this tool before and it was nice to read about how it works.

I think we should add more CI checks (e.g for linting and formatting), and then people can decide for themselves whether they use devcontainer or other means to check compliance with linters and formatters locally. In the Ntupling Service we use a Makefile where you can run scripts like make tidy and make audit: https://gitlab.cern.ch/cernopendata/lhcb-ntupling-service-backend/-/merge_requests/22/diffs. This could be a nice setup to use for the Ntuple Wizard as well.

What tools/extensions were you thinking of adding to the devcontainer configuration?

Thanks for these developments and for adding the markdown. Merging!
