Terminal highlighting in VS Code

Question

When I run ls from my home directory, the list of files and directories is displayed in various colors and some directories have a background color. I understand the filenames are displayed in whilte, while directories are blue.

What does a background color (green) behind a directory name indicate?

Answer 1
