What does the colorized text mean in ATOM Code Editor?

I understand JavaScript. But I know what the red, yellow and purple colorized text means in ATOM.

I guess those are grouped by specific JavaScript data but I'm not sure.

Do the colorized codes have any other meaning beside readability?

I would like to get some articles to learn about those if I could.

Thanks

(I didn’t change anything. From the picture this is the default code colors when you downloaded and start ATOM for the first time.)

Yes, it is purely aesthetical and doesn't change a thing in your actual code. It just makes it easier to read while you're programming.
The keyword here is syntax highlighting. There are many color schemes out there to help you getting a faster overview over your code.
You can also change the color palette in ATOM's settings if needed.
