ABOUT ALPHABETIZE LIST
02 / OVERVIEWWhat it solves
Spreadsheets are overkill for a short bibliography, a guest list or a set of tags. Copying that data into a random website is also a bad idea when the list contains names or client details.
Actions are independent so you can chain them: remove duplicates, sort, then add numbering. One level of undo is always available.
INPUT → OUTPUTEXAMPLE_001
banana Apple the Apple apple => Apple banana
With “Ignore leading A / An / The” enabled and duplicates removed, “the Apple” merges into “Apple” and the article never changes the visible text.
Common use cases
- Locale-aware alphabetical order
- One-click undo
- Nothing leaves the browser

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
04 / FAQIs duplicate removal case-sensitive?
No. “Banana bread” and “banana bread” are the same item, and the first occurrence is kept.
How do groups work?
A line starting with # is a heading. Items below each heading are sorted among themselves and never moved past the heading.
Can I change a comma list into a one-per-line list?
Yes. Choose the target separator under Advanced options and click Switch list format.
Are my lists uploaded?
Never. Sorting, deduplication and formatting are pure JavaScript functions running in this tab.
