color coded

Sorted by hue

Color coded means organized or marked using different colors to distinguish categories, types, or levels.

Files might be color coded by project, wires by function, or threat levels by severity.

The system allows quick visual identification: The folders are color coded—red for urgent, blue for routine.

Also spelled color-coded.
