My question is, is it a violation of any kind of code to put a dryer vent
that vents to the front of my house? I have a spot I can put it
inconspicuously and then a little paint would blend it right in. My house
has a dryer "stack" that runs through the roof and I suspect that it is
clogged and probably not the best way to vent in the first place. Any help
is appreciated. Thanks.

AS long as you keep it away from windows and doors, and don't
stick it somewhere where the outflow is going to be trapped under
a deck, eave, or roof, you should be safe from the generic codes.

But I think you should get this guy

to build you a gargoyle with a 4" hole, and mount it someplace
ostentatious, with your dryer vent feeding through it.
