Sort text lines
Sorting is done locally in your browser tab.
Why this tool works well
- Quick alphabetical sorting for long lists.
- Reverse-order option for alternate outputs.
- Case-insensitive mode for cleaner grouping.
- When reviewing a list of dependencies, imports, or configuration keys, sort them alphabetically to make it easier to spot duplicates, inconsistencies, or missing entries at a glance.
- For random sorting, paste a list of names or items and use the shuffle option to randomise the order — useful for assigning tasks, creating randomised test data, or running a fair draw.

FAQ
Does this support numeric sorting in text?
Yes, numeric-aware locale sorting is used.
Can I ignore case while sorting?
Yes, enable ignore-case before sorting.
Does the sorter handle numbers correctly?
Numeric sort mode treats values as numbers so 10 comes after 9 rather than between 1 and 2 as it would in alphabetical sorting. Use alphabetical mode for strings and numeric mode for lists that contain numbers.
What happens to blank lines in the input?
By default, blank lines are preserved in their sorted position. There is an option to strip blank lines before sorting if you want a clean output without gaps.
