        {
            "regex": ".*\/web\/.*"
        },
        {
            "regex": ".*\/mobile\/.*"
        }

colorTabs.activityBarBackground: Enable activityBar background coloring. default to false
colorTabs.titleLabel: Enable title label. default to false
colorTabs.ignoreCase: Ignore case while matching Regex. default to false

Advanced Settings

If you'd like to choose the colors yourself, and/or add a label (which is presented at the top window bar).
Note - you can mix the configuration, placing colors in some, and not in others. An advanced workspace.settings example :

"colorTabs.config": [
        {
            "regex": ".*\/mobile\/.*",
            "color": "#FF0000",
            "label": "MOBILE"
        },
        {
            "regex": ".*\/web\/.*",
            "color": "#00FF00",
        },{
            "regex": ".*\/desktop\/.*"
        },
    ]
"colorTabs.titleBackground": true    
"colorTabs.ignoreCase": true

Known Issues

This plugin writes to your vscode workspace settings.json, this means that it creates a git commit. To avoid pushing this change, you should have your .vscode directory in .gitignore. Currently writing to the settings.json is the only way to manipulate the colors in runtime.
