Sort Text Lines
Sort lines of text alphabetically, reverse alphabetically, or by line length online for free. Perfect for organizing lists, data, and content.
Sorting lines of text alphabetically — or in reverse order — is a surprisingly frequent task for developers, writers, and data professionals. Whether you're organizing a list of CSS class names, sorting keywords for an SEO project, alphabetizing bibliography entries, deduplicating a list of names, or preparing a manifest of files, manually reordering hundreds of lines is tedious and error-prone. This tool sorts any multi-line text input instantly, with options for ascending (A–Z) or descending (Z–A) alphabetical order.
The sort runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript's native Array.sort() — no data is sent to any server, making it safe for any type of content including code, personal data, or proprietary lists. The tool handles case-insensitive sorting correctly, so "apple" and "Apple" are treated equivalently. It also trims empty lines from the output optionally to keep results clean. For developers, this is indispensable when organizing import statements, configuration keys, or dependency lists. For content creators, it helps maintain alphabetically organized resources, link lists, or reference sections.
