Sort CSV
Sort CSV orders data rows by a column you choose. Numeric values sort numerically when every compared cell parses as a number; otherwise locale-aware text sort is used.
Conversion runs entirely in your browser. CSV contents are not uploaded to a server for this transform.
Key features
- Client-side parsing and transform
- Copy or download CSV output

Quoted commas and newlines must stay valid CSV — paste intact exports when possible.
