Removed the `lagged_oil_unrate_chart_styled.py` script as it is no longer needed. Added a `.gitignore` file, a `requirements.txt` for dependencies, and a `scripts/` directory for future development.

lagged_oil_unrate_chart_styled.py
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|

|
|
--start 1973-01-01 \
|
|
--end 2025-05-31 \
|
|
--extend-years 3
