Alphabetical Order Sorter

1. Paste your list with one item on each line.
2. Pick A to Z or Z to A, and tick the options you want, such as Remove duplicates.
3. Copy the sorted list from the result box.

Each line is one item. Items are compared using your browser's own language rules, so accented letters such as é and ü sort next to e and u instead of landing after z. With "Ignore case" on, "apple" and "Apple" count as the same letter; with it off, lowercase and uppercase are kept distinct.

"Sort numbers naturally" treats runs of digits as numbers, so "item 2" comes before "item 10". Switch it off for strict character-by-character order, where "item 10" comes first.

People use it to alphabetise a reading list or bibliography, order names for a class or guest list, tidy keyword lists, sort a column copied from a spreadsheet, and clean up lists of files, tags or emails. Turn on Remove duplicates to also get each item once.

To sort a single line of comma-separated words, first put each word on its own line, for example by replacing commas with new lines in your editor, then paste it here.
