.gitignore for custom visual

Hi,

 

I was surprised to see that the structure set up by running "pbiviz new ____" did not include a .gitignore file. As I've got no experience in creating custom visuals I'm not fully sure of wha can be safely excluded from git repositories. Obviously node_modules can be, but are there any other directories or files I should be ignoring?

 

Thanks
