About the sort lines

The sort lines tool reorders the lines in your text in one click. Paste a list and choose a sort mode: alphabetical ascending or descending, numerical ascending or descending, shortest or longest first, reverse the current order, or shuffle the lines randomly.

It is handy for organizing names, product lists, keywords, tasks, or any line-based data. Toggle case sensitivity to control whether capital letters affect alphabetical order, and optionally remove blank lines before sorting for a cleaner result.

Sort modes

  • A → Z / Z → A — alphabetical, ascending or descending.
  • 1 → 9 / 9 → 1 — numerical, by the leading number on each line.
  • Shortest / Longest first — by line length.
  • Reverse / Shuffle — flip the order or randomize it.

  2. Pick a sort mode

    Choose alphabetical, numerical, length, reverse, or shuffle from the buttons.

  3. Copy the sorted result

Frequently asked questions

How does numerical sort work?
Each line is sorted by the first number found on it (parsed as a decimal). Lines without a number are treated as zero.
Does it store my text?
No. Your text is processed entirely in your browser and is not sent to a server or saved anywhere.
What does case sensitivity do?
When off, uppercase and lowercase letters are treated equally for alphabetical sorting. When on, capital letters sort before lowercase.
Is the shuffle truly random?
It uses a browser-based random shuffle, which is fine for everyday use but not cryptographically secure.
Is the sort lines tool free?
Yes, it is completely free and requires no account or sign-up.
