Also, can I use a smart exclusion tso it knows to not index a folder id the folder is called "CSS" or "JS" or "XML" or whatever.

You can't do this at indexing time (you can only exclude folders you manually add to the "skipping these subfolders" pane).
You can however filter out files found in such folders at search time, by adding this criterion:
[then apply advanced filter] [full path] [does not contain the string (or "does not contain any of the strings"] [ignore case + multiple strings] [/css/—/js/—/xml/]
(use the em-dash character as a separator)
