Env File Sorter

A tidy .env is one you can scan. The Env File Sorter orders keys alphabetically — ascending or descending — or groups them by prefix so DB_, API_, and PUBLIC_ variables sit together.

Comments that document a key travel with it, so reordering never orphans an explanation. The result is deterministic: run it twice and the file comes out identical.

• Two orders: A-Z and Z-A.
• Prefix grouping: section by first underscore segment.
• Comments travel: headers stay with keys.
• Deterministic: stable sort, repeatable output.
• Copy or download: ready to save.
• Private: fully client-side.

1. Paste your .env or load the sample.
2. Pick a sort order and optional grouping.
3. Click Sort. The reordered file appears.
4. Copy it back into your project.

Example 1 — Onboarding. New contributors scan a sorted file quickly instead of hunting for a key.

Example 2 — Review diffs. Sorting before a commit gives reviewers a stable diff instead of a shuffled file.

Example 3 — Merging services. Grouping by prefix makes combined configs readable again.

Example 4 — Convention. A repo adopts alphabetical order; the sorter enforces it on every file.

• Scannable: find keys at a glance.
• Stable diffs: deterministic ordering.
• Grouped views: prefix sections.
• Comment-safe: docs stay attached.
• Private: nothing uploaded.
