Sort Words & Lines - Alphabetical & Reverse Order

A word sorter arranges lines or words in alphabetical, reverse alphabetical, or numerical order. It handles lists, names, or any text where you need consistent ordering. Use it to clean up data, organize references, or prepare lists for publishing.

1. Paste your list: Add items on separate lines or words separated by spaces.
2. Choose order: Select A–Z, Z–A, shortest first, or longest first.
3. Sort: Copy the reordered list for spreadsheets, docs, or code.

• Quick organization: Sort hundreds of items faster than manual reordering.
• Data prep: Alphabetize names, tags, or IDs before import.
• Code cleanup: Order CSS properties, imports, or constants alphabetically.

Use case 1: Contact lists

Alphabetize attendee names for event programs or seating charts.

Use case 2: Glossary creation

Sort technical terms A–Z for documentation or help pages.

Use case 3: Code style

Reorder import statements or JSON keys to match style guide rules.

Basic example

Input:

Banana
Apple
Cherry

Output (A–Z):

Apple
Banana
Cherry

Advanced example

Input: List of 100 product SKUs
Output (Z–A): Same SKUs in reverse alphabetical order.

Case sensitivity

Uppercase letters sort before lowercase in some modes. Normalize casing first with the lowercase converter if needed.

Numbers in text

"Item10" may sort before "Item2" because sorting is character-by-character. Pad with zeros (Item02, Item10) for correct numerical order.

• Remove duplicates first with the duplicate line remover if you want unique entries.
• For numeric lists, ensure all numbers have the same digit count or sort numerically.
• Combine with the whitespace remover to clean up before sorting.

• Remove duplicate entries with the duplicate line remover.
• Randomize order using the random choice picker.
• Clean up spacing with the whitespace remover.

Sorting runs locally in your browser. No lists are uploaded, so names and data stay private.
