Change the App Tile Background Color Programmatically

I'm developing an application. I want my deployed/installed application's tile synchronized to the User's background color. There are some answers(here, here) to this question saying that I can't achieve this. But how the other apps can achieve this? Like these apps.

enter image description here

I'm trying to leave a blank to the background color field on VS, however I get an error when I do.

Any thoughts and comments are welcome. Thank you.

The answer of Andrew Bares solves this issue. This answer is for Ionic Framework Cordova project. Just add this line to config.xml under the plaform block of windows.

<preference name="BackgroundColor" value="transparent" />

Set your tile background color to transparent. Then it'll automatically use the accent color the user has selected in Windows.
