I'm not sure I fully dig having editor-specific preference files in the track repo.
This reminds me of e.g. Vim fold markers in source code: While this may benefit some, it is clutter to others.
So unless some of this relates to deployment (like with Travis and Docker-related configuration), would it be adequate to put those particular files in .gitignore
so that your local setup can continue with them without popping up in git status
and such?

I'd be okay with this, just some points that might change the equation a bit
OK!
I think we should make development easier, and while I think many potential contributors to the track will already have most of the necessary Ocaml environment up and running, I'm sure we could boost interest in the track by providing an easy work environment. Perhaps, once this PR passes checks, we can move the documentation for installing this work environment into the repo's README.md.
Also, we should totally make a MirageOS exercise. :-D

Sounds very good. Might frame this as "skipping the line" / kickstart intro while keeping around the docs for full local setup

Excuse my ignorance but I don't understand the reference :(
It was a spur-of-the-moment idea that we should create an intro exercise for MirageOS: Making the track easier to work with for a particular workflow made me think of another Ocaml technology that I'd never gotten into. "How to get started with a certain Ocaml tech stack" is something we could have at the exercise level.

I thought that I was an Ocaml maintainer.
Are the Exercism organization groups on GitHub changing layout?

I thought so too.

I'm sorry I don't understand the question. I've not made any changes aside from adding people to teams.
@sshine You are an ocaml maintainer, and the ocaml team has write access to this repo. You are not allowed to merge?
@sshine @kytrinyx Any chance to unblock us?
@kytrinyx, @ihid: No, apparently I'm not authorized to merge this pull request. Screenshot:
I think I've unblocked this. The branch protection settings weird strange on this. Can you merge now @sshine?
Apparently I can merge approved PRs now, going ahead.
Thanks @iHiD
Great. Thanks for confirming!
This adds configuration for Visual Studio Code Remote - Containers. Using the mentioned extension with this config allows me to develop on the OCaml track in isolation, which helps with avoiding conflicts with other OCaml based projects and maintaining
