Scala for Kafka challenge?

Would it be possible to add more challenges to the Scala track? I would personally love to attempt the Kafka challenge in it.

Also a suggestion for the Scala starter: the .gitignore that it has is rather minimal and does not cover a lot of important files, which leads to them being pushed to VCS (specially for beginners like me).

The default sbt new creates a much better .gitignore that covers most of the sane defaults:

# macOS
.DS_Store

# sbt specific
dist/*
target/
lib_managed/
src_managed/
project/boot/
project/plugins/project/
project/local-plugins.sbt
.history
.ensime
.ensime_cache/
.sbt-scripted/
local.sbt

# Bloop
.bsp

# VS Code
.vscode/

# Metals
.bloop/
.metals/
metals.sbt

# IDEA
.idea
.idea_modules
/.worksheet/

It might be worth updating the same as well!
