I've recently started using PyCharm and it's autosave system is very confusing to me. Colorful tabs are even more confusing: what do the different tab color mean? There're tabs with blue text, black and red. What's the difference?

Created March 02, 2021 08:58. Those folders are highlighted in yellow because this is how PyCharm indicates library roots and other paths that your python interpreter uses. It can't be disabled. As for the yellow line inside the editor area, it's just how PyCharm highlights the line where you currently have the caret.
Those who have not marked their folder as "excluded", the color is due to merge conflicts.
The files in Pycharm are under Version Control. Pycharm changes the file's color by the status of file. The 'red' color of the file you mentioned indicated that the file is 'Unkown' status to the version control. If you add the 'Unkonwn' file to version control and commit to repository, the 'red' color can be changed.
Those orange folders are marked as Excluded (PyCharm doesn't build indices for them). You can change it by right-clicking the folder and choosing Mark Directory as, if needed.
Please refer to the File Status Highlights. Tab background color can be also different depending on the Scope.
