I use Xcode 9.0. Some folders icons in my Xcode project have dark triangles in bottom left corner - for example, "0. Login", "Frameworks", "Products", "Pods". What does this mean?
Blue is used to represent a "Folder Reference".
Xcode relies on filesystem organization by keeping a reference to a "physical" file or folder. That is why you may have all the classes, images, plists, and other parts of your projects stored in the same folder, while the references to these parts are being kept organized into respective groups within Xcode project.
Folders without dark triangles exist as a group in your project and also (what is new in Xcode 9) exist as a folder in file structure.
Example: After double-click in your project navigator you can see menu:
For New Group Xcode create group in project navigator and create folder in file structure (in finder) and of cource for New Group without Folder create only group.
